G.R.BATRA vs UNION OF INDIA . — C.A. No. 3293/2005

On May 10, 2005, the Supreme Court heard G.R. Batra's appeal against the Union of India and granted special leave to appeal. The Court allowed the appeal after finding that the mandatory pre-deposit of Rs. 20 lacs—which had caused the tribunal to dismiss Batra's earlier appeals—had since been deposited with the Dy. Commissioner of Customs, Thiruvananthapuram. The Court set aside the dismissal order and directed the tribunal to hear the appeal on its merits.
