371 tonnes of smuggled areca nuts worth 32.31 crore seized at JNPT

The containers were supposed to contain calcium nitrate, and the importer mis-declared the areca nuts to evade Customs duty of ₹36 crore, a DRI source said, adding, “The 14 containers were destined for the Inland Container Depot (ICD) in Talegaon, Pune”

The import of areca nuts attracts high tariff value as the latter seeks to protect the domestic industry. Slices of areca nuts are generally chewed in raw form or at times, mixed with slaked lime, spices and tobacco and are used by some allegedly for its mild psychostimulant effects. (HT PHOTO)

HC raps MCZMA, SEIAA for procedures in clearing Navi Mumbai Coastal Road

The coastal road will connect Panvel Creek to Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT). It will also provide connectivity between Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) junction and the airport at Navi Mumbai.

The bench noted that in view of such lacunae in the permissions of the concerned authorities, the CIDCO could not go ahead with the project and hence MCZMA and SEIAA needed to reconsider CIDCO’s proposal for the clearance. MCZMA has been asked to consider CIDCO’s proposal in the first week of May and SEIAA to decide the same by May 15. (Getty Images)
