Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-28-1999

Reported in: (2000)(115)ELT485Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The assessee manufactures inter alia polystyrene mouldings used as packing material. The initial raw material is styrene monomer. The assessee paid duty on these, which it manufactured classifying them under Heading 3903.10 of the Tariff. Styrene in this form converted into pre-expanded bead by heating is in the presence of steam, when it acquires compressibility. After some further processes this is used in the manufacture of final product. The assessee had availed of the benefit of Notification 53/88. Entry No. 39 of the table to that notification exempts all goods other than of polyurethanes falling under Headings 39.23,39.24 and 39.26 on payment of duty, if they made out of goods falling under Headings 39.01 to 39.15 of the Tariff on which duty has been paid and if such articles are produced out of plastic scrap. Notice was issued proposing to deny the exemption on the ground that the mouldings were manufactured out of pre-expanded polystyrene, which was an article of plastic c...

Vasantrao Dada Patil Ssk Ltd. Vs. Commr. of C. Ex.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-28-1999

Reported in: (2001)(130)ELT613Tri(Mum.)bai

1. Adjournment is requested on the ground of ill health of the Advocate of the appellant in E/217/94. After hearing both sides for the appellant in E/333/94, we do not consider adjournment necessary and dispose of both the appeals.2. In each of the orders impugned in the appeal, the Collector has advised each of the appellants before him to deposit the amount collected by it as representing duty in excess of the duty actually paid to Government, by invoking the provision of Section 11D of the Act.3. The Madras High Court has held in Eternit Everest Ltd. v. U.O.I.-1997 (89) E.L.T. 28 that while Section 11D is a valid piece of legislation, there is no machinery to adjudicate, determine and quantify the liabilities and to invoke them until such time the procedure for recovery of Section 11A cannot take place. Paragraph 25 of the judgment is relevant.4. Accordingly without going to the merits whether duty has in fact been collected in excess or not, we hold that the present proceedings fo...

It also filed price list in Part II for the same kind of compressors showing the price lower by assessable value Rs. 150 per compressor than in the Part I price list for sales to bulk buyers.Notice was issued proposing disallowance of the lower price on the ground that the bulk buyers did not constitute a different class of buyer and cannot be distinguished from other wholesale buyers, there cannot be more than one price for the same class of buyer. The notice was alleged that the claim for lower price, that the bulk buyers purchased a substantial quantity had not been justified. The Asstt.Collector declined to accept the assessee's contention that the price was on account of the fact that the bulk buyers constituted a different class because of the quantity of compressors that they purchased, and higher purchases in the past than other buyers. He confirmed the proposal in the notice.2. On appea...
