Per Jyoti Balasundaram 1. The assessees herein filed a Bill of Entry dated 19.12.2002 for clearance of 400 nos. of gas meters declaring the unit price for the item as EURO 8.65 CandF. The Department noticed that the similar item was cleared by the importer from the same supplier at a price of EURO 22 CandF under a Bill of Entry dated 17.9.2002. The value was therefore enhanced to EURO 22 CandF, rejecting the transaction value. The Commissioner (Appeals) set aside the loading of value; hence this appeal by the Revenue. 2. We have heard both sides. There is no dispute that the price of EURO 8.65 per piece of gas meters was secured by the assessees after protracted negotiations with the supplier for the price reduction. The negotiations were conducted in a transparent manner and in the normal course of commercial transaction in international trade between the seller and the buyer.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Aug-18-2010

Per Dr. Chittaranjan Satapathy 1. Heard both sides. The appellants are before the Tribunal for the third time. In the earlier order of the Tribunal passed in the second round, the adjudicating-Commissioner was merely directed to redetermine the issue with regard to imposition of penalty as that was the only issue which was challenged in the appeal before the Tribunal. Subsequent to the remand order, the adjudicating-Commissioner has reduced the penalty to Rs. 2 lakhs. We find that in the first adjudication order, the penalty imposed was Rs.2 lakhs, in the second adjudication order, after the first remand, the penalty imposed was Rs.3.5 lakhs and in the third adjudication order passed after the second remand, the penalty has been reduced to Rs. 2 lakhs. When the matter was remanded on the appeal by the appellants in the first round, they could not have been visited with a greater penalty in the fresh order. That has been corrected now in the impugned order as penalty has been brought do...

After the inclusion of the value of clearances made between 1.4.1995 and 22.4.1995 in the aggregate value of Rs. 30 lakhs, the assessees were found ineligible for full exemption in respect of the goods cleared during the period from 27.4.1995 to 8.5.1995.
