Full Judgment
2. The appellant relied upon the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of CCE v. Technoweld Industries to submit that this process does not amount to manufacture. The contention of revenue is that during the process of drawing of wire from wire rods the wire of thickness of 8mm was also come into existence which are not exempted from payment of duty. We find that appellants are merely engaged in the drawing of wire from wire rods and in view of the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Technoweld (Supra), we find that this process does not amount to manufacture.
Therefore, the impugned order is set aside and appeals are allowed.
