Cc Vs. Sony India P. Ltd.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Reported in: (1998)(79)LC588Tri(Delhi)

1. Short question involved in this matter which survives before us is whether hand tools such as screw driver, bit Tweezer, plier, wire stipper etc. are to be treated as consumer goods or they are to be treated as non-consumer goods i.e. capital goods. The adjudicating authority has held the goods to be capital goods. Therefore, this appeal has been filed by the Revenue contending that these are consumer goods and the licence is required for their importation.1.2. In order to appreciate the aforesaid controversy the reasoning of the adjudicating authority, namely, Commissioner of Customs after having examined the definition of capital goods and consumer goods, has come to the following conclusion: It goes without saying that the items are of high quality precision types and are meant for professional work. They would not be used in a household or domestic purpose or by an ordinary consumer. They are eminently suited for industrial application, that too, any high-tech industry, like hi...

Rajasthan Polymers and Resins Vs. Commr. of C. Ex.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Reported in: (1998)(104)ELT639TriDel

"In the instant case, the procedures were violated/not followed. Mere intimation vide letter dated 17-5-1995 to the Asstt. Commissioner that they intend to move the goods and then without even giving time to react, the goods were removed, would not amount to intimation. I find that this letter dated 17-5-1995 was apparently received in the Asstt. Commissioner's Office on 5-6-1995 (as per endorsement) by which time the transfer had already taken place. I see lot of force in the various grounds of appeal of the Department and allow the appeal." 2. The facts of the case, briefly stated, are that M/s. Rajasthan Polymers and Resins Limited (in short 'RPRL') received a quantity of 150 MT of Styrene Monomer through Bill of Entry No. 3603, dated 15-5-1995 during the period 18-5-1995 to 25-6-1995 and 148.730 MT of Styrene Monomer through Bill of Entry No. 3653, dated 15-5-1995 during the period 25-5-1995 to 5-6-1995 from M/s.
