Banking is a risky business. Banks, or more generally the credit institutions, in their role as intermediaries take upon themselves significant credit risks, while interposing between lenders (depositors) and borrowers. Credit risk is, by far, the largest risk faced by banks. The risk transformation, where they become borrowers to lenders and lenders to borrowers, leads to warehousing of risks in credit institutions. In fact, this risk transformation offered by credit intermediaries is the cornerstone of credit intermediation which facilitates pooling of savings for being lent for various economic activities.
Circular No. 08/2012-Customs Attention is invited to Board’s Circular No. 06/2012-Cus dated 06-03-2012 and DGFT RE Notification No.102 (RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 5th March, 2012 amending Notification no. 74(RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 12-09-2011 imposing ban on export of cotton (Tariff code 5201 and 5203).
The first and foremost issue is that whether the Circulars issued by the Board will be binding on the Revenue? Whether the Board circulars will be binding on the Assessee? Also, whether the Circulars will be binding on the Quasi Judicial Bodies i.e. the Original Adjudicating Authority (Deputy/Additional/Assistant Commissioner), Commissioner (Appeals) and the Tribunal? Whether, the High Court and the Supreme Court will also be bound by these circulars? Can department challenge the Circular issued by the Board when assessee has a right to challenge the same?
