Decided on: Jul-30-1996

Reported in: (1996)(87)ELT713TriDel

1. The captioned appeal is directed against the order dated 11-7-1987 passed by the Collector (Appeals). The Collector (Appeals), in his order had held : "4.I have considered the matter and am convinced that the appellants have a case on merits. I find that the appellants have made jute bags out of jute fabrics on which appropriate central excise duty and cess duty at the specific rate, both have been paid by them. Fabrics, be it sacking or Hessian, having included the sacking/hessian bags there is no scope to charge once again the cess duty on the jute bags when jute fabrics are both central excise and cess duty paid. The appellants are correct when they state that if further cess duty is levied under the circumstances on jute bags, it would tantamount to double taxation of cess levy. Hence, the Asstt. Collector's action demanding further cess duty on jute bags cannot be endorsed." 2. The facts of case, in brief, are that the respondents herein are engaged in the manufacture of jute ...

Proto Machine Tools Mfg. Co. Vs. Collector of C. Ex.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Jul-30-1996

Reported in: (1996)(87)ELT681TriDel

1. By the present appeal, the appellants have assailed the order of Collector, Central Excise (Appeals). The Collector, Central Excise (Appeals), in his order, had held "that in the application under consideration, the tool bits H.S.S. are designed for use in the machine tools. These are sold as mentioned earlier in standard sizes and the only work left to be carried out on this is giving edge. This is left to the customers which operation is done by the customer himself, it is clearly evident that the bits are classifiable under Tariff Item 51A(iii). They cannot be classifiable under Tariff Item 68. Mere giving of an edge does not take the product out of the purview of Tariff Item 51 A(iii) and bring it under Tariff Item 68. I would therefore, set aside the orders of the Asstt. Collector of Central Excise Division V in regard to the matter of classification of the goods and the refund sanctioned by him. The application is allowed." 2. Shri Shiraz P. Rustomjee, the learned Advocate ap...
