On the other hand the BIS officials had opined that photographs being secondary piece of evidence which appearances can vary with the angle of photography, it should not form the basis of his decision that the goods were \u2018LED chains\u2019\u2019 and not \u2018LED modules\u2019. The Tribunal further observed that in obedience to orders of the Commissioner (Appeals) test was carried out and BIS authorities had submitted their report reconfirming that the imported goods are LED Modules standard IS 16103 and the Port Duty Officer, Mumbai forwarded the same report received through e-mail to the respondent department with a cover note that for such item compulsory BIS registration mark was not required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Tribunal allowed the appeal stating that order passed by the Commissioner (Appeals) for absolute confiscation of imported goods does not stand the test of law and the same was required to be set aside.[Crysta LED (P) Ltd. v.
