Where a licence/certificate/permission is lost or misplaced, an application for grant of a duplicate copy thereof may be made alongwith an affidavit, as given in Appendix-11, to the licensing authority which has issued the original licence/ certificate/ permission. The licensing authority concerned may, on merits, issue a duplicate copy of the same after issuing an order for cancellation of the original licence/certificate/ permission and after informing the customs authority where the original licence/ certificate/permission was registered.
