Decided on: Dec-23-1991

Reported in: (1992)(43)LC288Tri(Delhi)

1. Before taking up the appeal for hearing we heard the miscellaneous application filed by the appellant for permission to raise additional grounds of appeal. The appellants seek to raise the ground that the order of the Superintendent dated 27.3.1982 granting partial rebate on excess sugar produced during a particular period is without jurisdiction as the competent officer to adjudicate the refund claims is the Assistant Collector of Central Excise under Section 1 IB of the Central Excises and Salt Act. 1944. The appellants contend that as the order of the Superintendent is a nullity no appeal was required to be filed against that order, and therefore, the appeal filed by the appellants cannot be dismissed as time-barred and cannot have the effect of clothing the order of 27.3.1982 with validity. We find that the additional ground sought to be raised is a question of law and we, therefore, permit it. The miscellaneous application is allowed.2. The appellants are a Co-operative Sugar ...
