LAHORE: Lahore High Court (LHC) has issued stay order on the collection of regulatory duty on imported tiles and ordered the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) to submit a reply in the case.
As per details, Justice Aisha Mailk heard the case where the counsel for the appellant argued that the FBR could not send notices for the recovery of regulatory duty without making an assessment.
He added that the FBR violated the law by sending notices to the sanitary store owners and other importers in this regard. He also asked the court to null and void the collection of regulatory duty on the import of tiles.
After hearing the arguments, the courts issued a stay order, directing the FBR and collector concerned to file a reply in this regard.
