Recent past DRI has detected several cases in which bills of entry/shipping bills were processed manually or manual clearance was allowed on EDI documents. Such cases have indicated the possibility of illegal import / export of restricted / prohibited goods and substantial loss of revenue to the Government exchequer. These cases highlight the high propensity to commit fraud and duty evasion that is associated with the manual processing of documents at any stage in the clearance process. It also needs to be noted that neither Directorate of Systems nor Directorate of Valuation are capturing the data relating to exports in respect of non-EDI locations. Most Customs locations have devised their own list of cases for which manual processing is allowed on a regular basis according to public notices and standing orders issued in this regard.
Circular No.22/2011-Customs The Comptroller & Auditor General of India (C&AG) had conducted a review of the working of ‘Project Imports’ scheme with a view to ascertaining the level of compliance, effectiveness of internal control and whether finalization has been done by field formations within a reasonable time frame. The audit review has revealed some systemic as well as compliance weaknesses relating to grant of project imports benefits and finalization of project imports cases. The C&AG has taken a serious view on the weak monitoring of the Project Imports and on the substantial delay in finalization of Project Imports as detailed in their Performance Audit Report No. PA 24 of 2009-10. In the light of various shortcomings pointed out in their report, the C&AG has recommended for a comprehensive review of the working of the scheme including the internal control and monitoring mechanism in vogue which govern the project imports, and to further strengthen this mechanism.
