AI summary

The issue relates to wrong classification of goods under customs duty code 9026 instead of 9032. The company has 60 days to respond and is assessing whether to appeal.

Likely market impact

Small one-time hit of about Rs 9.3 lakh; BHEL plans to appeal. Negligible impact for a large PSU.
