Private - Bonded Warehouses
Circular No. 28 dated 14th May
1996
I am directed to refer to
the instructions issued by the Board vide circular No. 68/ 95 dated 15th June,
1995 (F. No. 473/ 61/ 94-LC) and to say that a doubt has arisen whether the
applications for grant of licences to private bonded warehouses may be granted
even though, if violations committed by the party does not come within the exact
ambit/ frame work of five years in terms of the aforesaid circular.
2. The
matter has been examined further and it is decided now that the Commissioner of
Customs may examine the type of violations whether they are serious or technical
in nature. However, if the violations are of serious nature, Commissioner may
examine the extent of seriousness of such violations. If violations committed by
the party indicate deliberate action, the grant of warehousing licences section
58 of Customs Act, 1962 to the party may not be warranted even though it does
not came within the exact ambit/ frame work of five years in terms of Board's
Circular No. 68/ 95 dated 5.6.1995.
