Both depeans upon the circumstances
as per my knowledge imprisonment upto 7 years or sometimes extend to 3year with fine or without as per circumstances
and penalty equal to 50%of duty sometimes interest too
Is there a provision for bail if amount is less than a crore, as in case of PoMLA?

Most of them are without bail I think. You can get an initial bail, but once judgement is given proven guilty, it’s non bailable. Cigarettes 🚬 is harmful, rcm is not applicable because ppl will start manufacturing using toxic wastes.
