Decided on: Jul-11-1996

Reported in: (1996)(86)ELT684TriDel

1. This appeal is directed against Order-in-Appeal No. 146/86-B, dated 19-11-1986 passed by the Collector of Central Excise (Appeals). The issue that falls for determination is whether "Lyophiliser" is classifiable under the then Tariff Item 29A as refrigerating and air-conditioning appliances or under Tariff Item 68 erstwhile Central Excise Tariff.2. Arguing for the Revenue, ld. D.R. submits that basically it performs the function of refrigerating, and therefore, it ought to have been held classifiable under Tariff Item 29A. He, however, conceeds that today these items are being assessed under 8419.00 of the present tariff and Collector has accepted this as correct tariff item,. He also concedes that Chandigarh Collectorate did issue a trade notice to which a reference has been made by Collector (Appeals), indicating classification of this very item "lyophiliser" under Tariff Item 68.4. We have heard ld. D.R. and perused the records of the case. The literature placed in the appeal pa...

1. The captioned appeal is directed against the order of the Collector (Appeals) who had held that: "I have carefully gone through the order appealed against and considered the various submissions made in the appeal petition/letter dated 24-2-1986 as well as those argued at the time of personal hearing. It was argued by the appellants in only 2 cases they had supplied the raw materials worth about Rs. 25,000/- and in other cases they purchased the goods from outside and sent their consignment to various parties. The bought out items cannot be added for arriving at the clearances value in determining the eligibility of exemption benefit as envisaged under Notification No. 77/85-C.E., dated 17-3-1985. The excise law does not prohibit the licence in. doing trading activity. My above finding gets support from the decisions held by the higher authorities as follows :- (1) Re : Otis Elevator Company (India) Ltd. - 1981 (8) E.L.T. 720 (G.O.L) observe: "Government therefore hold that the elev...
