1. The assessees manufacture tubes. They had claimed that capacitors, which are parts of electrical resistance, purchased by them, qualified under Rule 57Q as capital goods. The Assistant Commissioner rejected the claim on the following observation : "Capacitors are parts of Electrical Resistance welding plants stated by the party.

In fact, capacitors are parts of the electric motors which are used to run the machines. An electric motors in no way is used either for processing or producing the final products.
