Gopal Trading Co. Vs. Commissioner of Income Tax

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Jul-25-2002

Reported in: (2003)183CTR(Del)259; [2003]263ITR306(Delhi)

Manmohan Sarin, J. 1. Counsel for the respondent has taken me through the order passed by the CIT at p. 43 of the paper book as also the assessment order Annexure 'C'. From a perusal of these orders it would appear that the ground taken by the assessed of the delay in filing of returns being attributable to the CBI having seized account books, does not appear to be tenable and convincing ground, so as to justify waiver of the penalty and interest. It is noted in the assessment order that the assessed was not found to be maintaining books of accounts. It was discovered in the survey carried out that the assessed was not maintaining books of account. Rather the delay in filing is stated to be on account of making the accounts at its own convenience. As regards the seizure of books of account by the CBI, it is urged that if the assessed was earnest, he could have obtained inspection of the seized books and records and taken details and filed returns. Moreover, in view of the limited scope...

Commissioner of C. Ex. Vs. Punjab Fibres Ltd.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Jul-24-2002

Reported in: (2003)(151)ELT85TriDel

1. The issue raised in this appeal is the availment of the benefit of exemption under Notification No. 5/98, dated 2-6-98 and 5/99, dated 28-2-99. These exemptions were subject to the condition that the yarn utilized in the manufacture of cabled yarn is duty paid. The ld. DR submits that in the present case cabled yarn is produced from lycra yarn as well as textile yarn. While lycra is duty paid, textile yarn manufactured in the appellant's own factory and captively consumed is without payment of duty. He, therefore, submits that the appellant was not eligible for the exemption. The ld. DR also points out that to avail of the exemption, the assessee should fulfil all the conditions required before claiming the same. He relies on the decision of this Tribunal in the case of Remedies (India) Pharmaceuticals v. Collector of Central Excise, New Delhi [1998 (101) E.L.T. 344 (T)] in support of this contention.2. As against this, the ld. Counsel for the appellants points out that the issue i...

We have heard the learned Advocate for the appellants and the learned SDR on the stay application as well as the appeal filed by the appellants. The learned Advocate for the appellants states that his client is a small-scale unit which coated fabrics with LDPE on job work basis.

United Phosphorus Ltd. reported in [2000 (117) E.L.T. 529] in support of his argument. He also states that since he was under the bona fide belief that the goods are not exisable, extended time limit for demand of duty does not apply in his case, in view of the decision in Bihar Foundry & Engg. Works v. CCE, Patna reported in [1999 (107) E.L.T. 779 (T) = 1998 (29) RLT 470 He also pleads that his client is not in a position to pay the...
