Cc Vs. Shree Electronics

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-22-2000

Reported in: (2000)(93)LC544Tri(Mum.)bai

1. We have heard the departmental representative on the appeal filed by the department. The respondent is absent and unrepresented despite notice.2. The ground in the appeal that the Collector's order is contradictory, in that it offers redemption of goods ordered to be absolutely confiscated, has to be accepted. This is what the Collector has said in the operative portion of the order. Since he has fixed specific amount for redemption for the goods, which are confiscated, he intended this option to be given and the words "absolute confiscation" appearing in the operative portion appear to be an error. We therefore direct that his order be treated as one of giving an option to redeem the goods, which he had already confiscated.3. The departmental representative did not press the ground on valuation. Therefore we do not deal with it.4. It is not possible to accept the ground in the appeal since it has been established that the importer was non-existent, an option to redeem the goods on...

Commissioner of C. Ex. and Cus. Vs. Roto Inks (P) Ltd.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-22-2000

Reported in: (2000)(118)ELT597Tri(Mum.)bai

1. In the order impugned in this appeal the Commissioner (Appeals) has held that the failure by the assessee to include the correct classification in the Modvat declaration of the inputs did not disqualify it from taking credit.2. I have heard the Departmental Representative. The respondent is absent and unrepresented despite notice.3. I do not question the averments in the department's appeal that the inputs must be specifically mentioned in the declaration under Rule 57G. However, the two notices to show cause which were issued to assessee do not propose this. The show cause notices are themselves in a standard stereo typed form. The Annexure-A to each of these notices, which alleges specific charges, indicates that the classification of the inputs, which were shown in the 57G declaration, is different from the declaration in the gate passes. From this it will be clear that the input themselves had been declared in the 57G declaration. The question then is not the one of failure to ...

Decided on: Mar-22-2000

Reported in: (2001)(135)ELT1171Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The appeal itself is taken up for disposal after waiving deposit as the issue for consideration is settled by the judgment of the Supreme Court and numerous decisions of the Tribunal.2. The appellant is a job worker manufacturing chemicals out of raw materials supplied by persons to whom he returns the finished goods.The question for consideration in this appeal is whether in determining the assessable value of these goods, the profit that the supplier of the raw material (i.e., recipient of the finished goods) earns on selling the finished products is to be included in the assessable value. Both the Assistant Commissioner and the Commissioner (Appeals) have held it is to be so and included.3.

Court: Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ITAT Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-22-2000

Reported in: (2001)78ITD41(Mum.)

The only question in this appeal by the department is whether the CIT(A) is right in excluding the insurance claim of Rs. 11,97,400 from the 'total turnover' while computing the deduction under section 80HHC.2. The Assessing Officer while computing the deduction noticed that the assessee had received the aforesaid sum from the United Indian Insurance Co.

He added the amount to the "total turnover" for the purposes of section 80HHC, while applying the formula : Export turnoverProfits & Gains of business X --------------------- Total turnover The result was that the denominator in the formula got enhanced and the deduction got reduced.3. The CIT(A) held that though the amount was includible in the income of the company, it will not go into the 'total turnover'.
