1. The question that arises for decision in this appeal, originally filed as a revision application before Govt. of India and transferred to this Tribunal for disposal, as an appeal, is the eligibility of 'DIODES' for exemption from customs duty under Notification No.211/76-Cus.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Jan-09-1987

Reported in: (1989)(42)ELT725TriDel

1. The facts of the case, briefly stated, are that the appellants undertake the work of cutting of rough marble blocks into slabs on job-work basis. The marble blocks are supplied by outsiders who pay labour charges for the job-work done by the appellants in their factory at Makrana. The Central Excise authorities considered that the said process of cutting marble blocks into slabs amounted to manufacture within the meaning of Sec. 2(f) of the Central Excises and Salt Act, 1944 and that the slabs were liable to be charged to duty under Tariff Item No. 68 of the Central Excise Tariff Schedule in force during the relevant period. It appears that the appellants were also under the belief that duty had to be paid on marble slabs and had, on that basis, paid excise duty during the period upto 31-3-1981 but on the value of the job charges recovered from their customers. From 1-4-1981, however, the appellants did not pay any duty on the basis that they were eligible for duty exemption in ter...

R.N. Aggarwal, J. (1) A short but interesting question of law arises in this petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
