As per the agreement, the goods were to be loaded from Kuala Tanjung, Indonesia by MGV Commodity Pte Ltd. and to be received by the plaintiff at Kakinada, Indian Port. The plaintiff made the full payment of the quantity along with the freight and customs duty. As the defendent vessel arrived at the discharge port on 06-04-2023, it was found that the quantity on board was less than the total quantity leading to the shortage of final 1.37% against the Bill of lading quantity. Thereafter, the plaintiff issued a legal notice to the owner of the defendant vessel to make the payment for the loss suffered by the plaintiff not only on the payment of entire amount but also on paid freight on entire cargo and the customs duty for 43.736 MT of RBD Palm Olein.
