Kamal Engineering Vs. Collector of Central Excise

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-13-1993

Reported in: (1994)(69)ELT389Tri(Mum.)bai

1. There is a delay of 2 years 3 months and 21 days in the case of COD-168/92 and 1 year 5 months and 12 days in the case of COD-367/92.The common reason given in both the cases is that the delay has occurred; because the Excise Clerk was not attending to these papers and subsequently he took away these papers from the factory, which were got back with the help of Ex-Mayor. They have also made a Police complaint against the Excise Clerk. Their factory is a small scale unit consisting of one Excise Clerk, who was employed as a part-time worker.Hence, the delay is mainly attributed to the Excise Clerk who was not putting up the papers to the proprietor and took away these papers from the factory, which were got back only on 8-11-1992. They filed the appeal in both the cases on 29-11-1992. In this context, the affidavit from the Ex-Mayor and also the copies of the connected documents explaining the aforesaid position have been produced during the hearing.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-13-1993

Reported in: (1994)(50)LC20Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The reference application is in respect of the order No. 1655/92-WRB dated 4.9.1992, wherein, this Bench allowed the appeal of the respondents and set aside the order of the Collector. The undisputed factual position in the aforesaid case is that the respondents filed a modvat declaration on 18:1.1988 and there is no allegation that some new inputs were received in April, 1988, when they started availing the benefit of small scale exemption up to Rs. 15 lakhs. Hence, availment of modvat credit during the period when they were clearing the goods valued up to Rs. 15 lakhs was kept under suspension. Thereafter they filed classification list on 26.4.1988. However, when they started paying duty after crossing the slab of Rs. 15 lakhs, they had taken modvat credit on the same inputs already declared on 18.1.1988 and the Department objected to this on the ground that a fresh declaration was called for. This Bench held that they had already filed a declaration and no new inputs are sought ...

Bajaj Auto Ltd. Vs. Collector of Central Excise and

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-13-1993

Reported in: (1994)(51)LC67Tri(Mum.)bai

1. For hearing the applicants' appeal on merits, they are required to deposit a sum of Rs. 3,44,469/- towards duty and a penalty of Rs. 10,000/-, vide order in original No. 33/CEX/93 dated 3.6.1993.2. The issue involved in this stay application is, whether paint, which has been brought in as input for use in relation to the manufacture of scooter, could be cleared as such, as a touch up paint by including the value of such paints. We take note of the fact that the South Regional Bench has already taken a decision that paint is an input and if it is cleared as such without being put to any use in or in relation to the manufacture of the final product, modvat credit is not admissible. We are not prima facie impressed with the argument for taking a different view, since in such cases of removal of inputs as such without use in the factory, Rule 57F(2) is to be followed. Hence, we direct the applicants to deposit the entire duty amount of Rs. 3,44,469/- within a period of ten weeks from t...
