We received BIS NOC from Ministry of steel for multiple test certificates, but in that NOC as per the system only one TC date mentioned. SO that the customs rejected our NOC, customs demanding to mention all the TC date in NOC. But our consultant telling it is not possible to mention all the TC date we can mention only one TC date in NOC. Which is correct please can you give clarification on that
