Vst Industries Ltd. Vs. Joint Secretary to Govt. of India (Rev)

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jul-18-2001

Reported in: 2002(142)ELT30(Mad)

ORDERV.S. Sirpurkar, J.1. There was a corrigendum issued, by which, it was directed that the word 'not' in the order dated 5-3-1991 passed by the Joint Secretary to the Government of India in the last paragraph should be read as 'now'. That corrigendum is challenged in W.P. No. 18864 of 1993. Mr. Sashidharan does not press this writ petition and agrees that the word 'not' is not correct, but should have been 'now'. W.P. No. 18864 of 1993 is, therefore, disposed of.2. The matters, however, do not stop there. Unfortunately, when the word 'now' is substituted in place of the word 'not' then the order dated 5-3-1991 becomes a remand order. Under Section 129DD of the Customs Act, 1962, there cannot be a remand, and there can only be the annulment or modification. Realising this, both the parties urge that in order to save time and in order to put the matters on right track, the authority, who wrote the order dated 5-3-1991 being the joint Secretary to the Government of India, should himself...
