The decision in the case of HCL Ltd. v. UOI, 1992 (59) ELT 509 (CAL) is not applicable to the facts of the present matter as the issue before the Hon'ble High Court for decision was entirely different. The Hon'ble Calcutta High Court held that the importer can not be held to be guilty of breaking either Section 11(d) or 112 (a) of the Customs Act since the consignments were imported in accordance with the licence and since even after assembly the importer did not achieve something which the importer could not have legally achieved.
