Reported in: (1998)(101)ELT361TriDel

1. Arguing on the application for waiver of pre-deposit of Rs. 95,653.50, learned Counsel, Shri Gopal Prasad submits that credit of this amount has been denied on two counts, (i) a sum of Rs. 74,623.50 has been denied on 4 invoices for the reason that they were not marked as "duplicate for transporter" but were only marked as "carrier copy" and (ii) credit of Rs. 21,030/- has been denied on the ground that the 5 invoices on the strength of which this credit has been taken were not clearly marked as duplicate copy for transporter as they were simply marked by pen. It is not the proper way of marking as per Rule 52A of the Central Excise Rules.

1. This appeal is directed against the order dated 17-1-1989 passed by the Collector of Customs & Central Excise (Appeals)'. The issue involved is the correct classification of Standard Bowl which is a component of Filtering machine.2.

HSN notes at page 1181 exclude Filter funnels, milk strainers, vessels, tanks etc. simply equipped with metallic gauze or other straining material or general purpose vessels, tanks etc. even if intended for use as filters after insertion of layer of gravel, sand charcoal etc. Once they are held to be not classifiable under Heading 84.21, they have to be assessed as articles of plastic of Chapter 39. The learned DR countering this argument submits the Section Note 2(b) of Section XVI makes it clear that such parts have to go as parts of the finished product and finished product would be assessable to duty only under Heading 84.21.What is exc...
