July 23, 2024

We have filed a bill of entry for home consumption but due to some financial difficulties, we are unable to pay the duty immediately.

- TNC RAJAGOPALAN

So, we want to put the goods in a public bonded warehouse and clear the goods when we have the money to pay the duty. Can we do that?

Section 46(5) of the Customs Act, 1962, says that if the proper officer is satisfied that the interests of revenue are not prejudicially affected and that there was no fraudulent intention, he may permit substitution of a bill of entry for home consumption for a bill of entry for warehousing or vice versa. So, you have to file a request with the proper officer and satisfy him that the revenue interests are not prejudicially affected if he allows the goods to be stored in a bonded warehouse and get his permission.

Despite a 30 per cent crypto tax and 1 percent tax deducted at source (TDS), the market remains youth-driven, with investors aged 26-35 contributing 45 per cent of total investments. In a video interview with Peerzada Abrar, Singhal discusses demographic trends, regulatory challenges, and the shift from speculative trading to long-term investing. Edited excerpts:
