Decided on: Jul-27-1988

Reported in: (1995)(77)ELT719TriDel

1. The dispute in this appeal is on classification of steel balls under the new Central Excise Tariff which came into force from 01-03-1986.The lower authorities have classified the goods under Heading 84.82 of the tariff on the strength of Note 6 to Chapter 84 of the Tariff. The prayer of the appellants is that the goods should be reclassified as parts of cycles under Heading 87.12 read with Heading 87.14 of the Tariff which, read with exemption Notifications No. 62/86-C.E., dated 10-02-1986 and 162/86-C.E., dated 01-03-1986, would entitle them to nil rate of duty. On referring to Note 6 of Chapter 84, relied on by the department, we find that it reads as under :- "6. Heading No. 84.82 applies, inter alia, to polished steel balls, the maximum and minimum diameters of which do not differ from the nominal diameter more than 1% or by more than 0.05 mm, whichever is less. Other steel balls are to be classified in Heading No. 73.26." The aforesaid note is a statutory provision and since i...

Decided on: Jul-27-1988

Reported in: (1989)(21)LC21Tri(Delhi)

1. The Respondents manufactured Vinyl Acetate Monomer. They supplied it to their customers in road takners and drums/barrels Both the road tankers and drums/barrels belonged to the customers and the Respondents incurred no expenditure in respect thereof. The department admits that the containers were durably and were returnable to the customers. At the same time, the department seeks to deny exclusion of the cost of the containers in the assessable value of the goods on the ground that Section 4(4)(d)(i) provides for the cost of durable packing which is returnable by the buyer to the assessee and not vice-versa. This is the only point agitated in the two appeals of the department.2. During the hearing today, the Ld. Representative of the department was fair enough to state that there were a series of High Court judgements and the judgment of this Tribunal which were against the department on the point at issue. As an illustration, he cited paragraph 19 of the larger Bench judgement of...

1. The issue in this matter is the correct classification of "Truity Fruity, a preparation of vegetable and fruits which the respondents claim Is being manufactured by them entirely for further production of end products at their various units.

Further, it is claimed by the respondents that the containers In which truity fruity is packed are not designed to hold pre-determined quantity of goods.2.

New Delhi Municipal Committee Vs. Sir Sobha Singh and Sons (P) Ltd.

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Jul-27-1988

Reported in: 36(1988)DLT223

D.P. Wadhwa, J.(1) This second appeal by the New Delhi Municipal Committee (for short 'the NDMC') has been filed against the judgment and decree dated 7.12.1973 of the Addl. District Judge, Delhi, whereby he reversed the judgment and degree of the trial court dismissing the suit of the plaintiff. (2) The respondent-plaintiff filed a suit against the Ndmc challenging assessment of the property for the year 1969-70 under the Punjab Municipal Act 1911 (for short 'the Act'), as extended to Delhi. Principal contention which had been raised by the plaintiff was that while arriving at the annual rental value, the Ndmc could not have taken into account the house-tax and water charges payable by the tenants. I, however, need not give the facts in detail as the issue as to whether the suit was barred under S. 86 of the Act which was raised by the Ndmc has since been decided by a Bench decision of this court in the case of the same very parties but for a different assessment year. The case is Sir...
