Rolex watch seized from Dubai based traveler at Delhi Airport, ruled 'Not Commercial' by High Court

Wait 5 sec.

The Delhi High Court ruled that a single Rolex watch seized from a Dubai resident at Indira Gandhi International Airport does not qualify as a commercial quantity. While upholding customs fines and penalties, the court allowed the watch’s redemption, emphasizing that high-value personal items worn by travelers should not be arbitrarily classified as commercial imports.
