Board forgets its own notifications!
Notification No. 221/2002 – cus is amended to add after clause (h), the following clause, namely:-
“(i) the goods specified against serial Nos.34 and 434 of the said Table on or after the 1st day of November, 2006.”.
But it is really pathetic that the Board has no updated copy of its own notifications. Clause (i) has been added to Notification No. 21/2002 by Notification No. dated 6th July 2006.
So the present amendment should actually add a new clause (j). But the Board says add clause (i).
This is because Board has no idea of the amendments carried out to its notifications. What will happen to the Clause (i) already added by Notification No. ?
Now Board has corrected this mistake. The (i) is changed to (j). A former TRU official told us that it is impossible to make such mistakes, as the latest version of the notification would be available in the file. Then why does it happen? It requires great talent!
