1. The appellant filed this appeal against the Order-in-Appeal passed by the Commissioner (Appeals) whereby the refund claim of the appellant was rejected on the ground that the appellant failed to prove that burden of duty has been passed on to the customers. The only contention of the appellant is that the goods are captively consumed, therefore, the principles of unjust enrichment are not applicable.2. We find that the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of UOI v. Solar Pesticide Pvt.

The Commissioner (Appeals) in the impugned order held that the appellant have recovered the amount of Central Excise duty from their customers in the cost of the power supplied to them. The cost of generation and distribution of power is taken into consideration while fixing the rate of power at which the appellants were supplying the power to the customers.
