Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Oct-06-2010

Per Jyoti Balasundaram 1. Classification of water filters manufactured and cleared by the respondents herein is the issue for determination in the present appeal - whether under CET sub-heading 7323.10 as tableware and kitchenware etc. as claimed by the assessees or under CET sub heading 8421.10 as filtering or purifying machinery or apparatus as contended by the Revenue. 2.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Oct-06-2010

Per Jyoti Balasundaram 1. The issue in these appeals is whether floor sweepings arising during the course of manufacture of detergents and comprising waste material and residual waste of raw material, is dutiable. 2. On hearing both sides, we find that this issue stands settled by the Tribunal’s decision in Kailash Soap Pvt. Ltd. Vs CCE Bolpur [2008 (23) ELT 176] holding that floor sweepings arising in the process of manufacture of soap comprising of waste material and residual waste of raw material is not dutiable as no evidence establishing its marketability was produced by the Revenue. In that case, as in the present one, the floor sweepings were cleared on a nominal value but in spite of that, the Bench held that the item was not excisable and hence not liable to duty. Following the ratio of the above decision, which is applicable on all fours to the facts of the present case, we set aside the impugned orders and allow the appeals....

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Oct-06-2010

Per Jyoti Balasundaram 1. The issue in dispute in the present appeal namely classification of “ducts” manufactured out of G.I. sheets stands settled by the decision of the Tribunal in the assessee’s own case reported in 2006 (197) ELT 372 which has been upheld by the apex court by rejection of the Revenue’s appeal against the Tribunal’s order, as seen from 2006 (200) A138 (SC).
