Trade has represented that in cases where the goods are being imported from neighbouring countries or where the import takes place through Air, often invoice/packing list/bill of lading (Airway Bill) for the import consignment are not received before hand. As a result issue of TRA by the Custom House at the port of registration of license gets delayed resulting in avoidable demurrage charges on the import goods. Trade has, therefore, represented that since the responsibility of examining the eligibility of imported goods against Advance License/DFRC License/DEPB License etc. is that of the Custom House at the port of import, in order to avoid delay in issue of TRA, Customs may be advised to issue the TRA without asking for invoice/ packing list/bill of lading.
As regards the adjudication proceedings, since some major issues, such as manner of disposal of hazardous waste, sale to actual user etc. are yet to be decided by Hon’ble Court, confiscation of the goods at this stage will not be advisable .

Therefore, adjudicating proceedings in the case of hazardous waste , should be kept in abeyance till the outcome of the writ petition filed before Hon’ble Supreme Court.
