I ordered a massager online which was retained by customs in Mumbai. Now i received a call-cum-show notice saying product is prohibited and is considered as obscene good.I am required to show cause as to why the product should not be confiscated(sec 111 d) and penalty should not be imposed under sec 112 a.
Can i just ignore the letter as i dont mind if i do not get the product and ready to bear the loss. i do not want a personal hearing.Also if i have to pay the penalty how much would be the penalty - product cost around 800Rs and can i pay the penalty without having to visit personally.
Should i reply to the letter...I just dont want to get into all this...please advice...

SECTION 112. Penalty for improper importation of goods, etc.- Any person, -
(a) who, in relation to any goods, does or omits to do any act which act or omission would render such goods liable to confiscation under section 111, or abets the doing or omission of such an act, or
does this mean the item will only be confiscated??
what should i do if i totally want to avoid this situation

I did not reply to the previous notice...and now I have rec'd a final notice asking to appear" if u r desirous of being heard" or the case will b decided ex-parte and the goods will be disposed without any further reference or u may avail the option of returning the goods back by sending DD of Rs 500...what does this mean?...what should I do...I do not want to appear before anyone...does this mean they will dispose the goods and close the matter...and if I need to pay the 500...which I am ready will they close it then? Please advice
