Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-30-1999

Reported in: (2000)(68)ECC405

1. Appellant manufacture in its factory at Vasind in Thane District thin laminated sheets of plastic (apparently called webs). These are cleared to its factories at Wada and Murbad where they are converted into tubes which are used for packing such articles as toothpaste and cosmetics. Since all three factories were owned by the same person the assessable value of the goods cleared from Vasind to the other two factories was determined on the basis of cost of production by applying Rule 6(b)(ii) of the Valuation Rules. During the period between May, 1996 and June, 1997 appellant sold 16 consignments of the web to M/s.Courtaulds Packaging (I) Pvt. Ltd., Goa (CPPL for short). The goods were sold at Rs. 17.16 per sq. metre and the assessable value derived from this sale price is Rs. 233.81 per kg.

Collector of C. Ex. Vs. Wadhwana Mechanical Works

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-30-1999

Reported in: (2000)(118)ELT730Tri(Mum.)bai

1. This is an appeal filed by the department against the decision of Collector of Central Excise (Appeals), Ahmedabad made in Order-in-Appeal No. 115/95 (4 DAHD)CE/COLLR (A), dated 22-05-1995 wherein he had allowed the Modvat credit. In the appeal before me the question is whether Modvat is eligible to be given to the manufacturer who received the input and received the subsidiary gate pass after the receipt of the goods. The inputs were received on 27-1-1994 and the credit was made on 3-2-1994 after the receipt of the duty paying document . Normally the duty paying document should accompany the inputs but, however, the Modvat credit need not to be denied as long as the input and the final product are declared and the input has been used in the manufacture of the final product. It is not the case of the Department in this case that the input and the usage thereof by the manufacturer of the final product were not declared. The usage of the input has been admitted. If at all there is vi...

The Divisional Forest Officer Vs. Shri K.N. Shaikh and Others

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-30-1999

Reported in: 2000(2)BomCR174; (2000)2BOMLR126

ORDERR.J. Kochar, J.1. The Divisional Forest Officer, the petitioner, has prayed for an appropriate order and direction to quash the proceedings filed by the 1st respondent before the 2nd respondent, (Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal) Appeal No. 3/96 as not maintainable. Though Shri P.K. Pandit, the learned Counsel for the petitioner in effect has argued for issuance of a writ of prohibition the prayer made in the petition is for quashing of the proceedings. I have specifically mentioned so, as the Counsel has confined his submission to issuance of a writ of prohibition. 2. The dispute pertains to a piece of land bearing Survey No. 345(A) situated at Borivli, Mumbai. It appears from the record that in the year 1962 the said land along with other lands were sold to one M/ s. Veekaylal Investment Co. Pvt. Ltd. by the Court Receiver. It also appears from the record that the said sale was confirmed by the High Court. Since we are not concerned with the other minor details I am skipping such de...

Dr. Gopal Dimaji Borade Vs. Dimaji Piraji Borade and ors.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-30-1999

Reported in: I(2001)DMC346

ORDERR.J. Kochar, J.1. Relations and families are found to have been wrecked on the rocks of either excessive property or abysmal poverty. In the present case property has become the root cause for the dissensions to such an extent that the plaintiff-son and his two brothers (defendant Nos. 2 and 3) have questioned the motherhood of their mother (defendant No. 4) by calling her merely the second wife of their father in their greed to get some more share in the property and to add to their already existing riches and affluence as all appear to be very well placed and posted in the station of their life. They have named their brothers defendant Nos. 5,6 and 7, as the illegitimate children of their father from his second wife-defendant No. 4. The greed for more property has condemned the very hands which nursed, cared and brought up the plaintiff-son and his other brothers as highly educated men of status in the society. Love for mother is lost in the right to get property. They have call...

This case was therefore taken up for disposal on merits, after hearing Shri Patwari, the ld. JDR for the revenue.2. In approving the classification claimed by the assessees of IV infusion sets and PVC plastic pouches, the Assistant Collector denied the benefit of Notification No. 339/86, dated 11-6-1986. In doing so, he referred to and relied upon an order passed by the then Commissioner (Appeals). Against this order the assessees filed an appeal before the Commissioner (Appeals). The Commissioner (Appeals) rejected the appeal holding thus: "The impugned order and the submissions have been considered by me.

Since the decision of the Assistant Commissioner's order ...
