1. The appellants M/s. Ambalal Sarabhai Enterprises Ltd. manufacture Sorbitol falling under Item 68 CET. Following a visit of the factory premises by the Central Excise officers on 26-2-1985, notice dated 22-4-1985 was issued to them.

The Department was of the view that the said starch hydrolysate was glucose and, therefore, fell under Item 1E CET which covered glucose in whatever form including liquid glucose.
