Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: May-03-2000

Reported in: (2001)(132)ELT90Tri(Mum.)bai

1. In the impugned order, the Commissioner (Appeals) has held that the benefit of Notification 175/86 or 1/93 (whichever is applicable at the time of clearance) could not be denied to the electrical light fittings manufactured and cleared by the respondent solely because they bore upon them the letter 'F' or 'FLB' or 'FAD'. He did not accept that the letter F for these denotes the name Fixolite, which was the brand name used by another manufacturer, was not entitled to this notification. It is informed that no proof is produced to this effect.2. The departmental representative reiterates the grounds in the appeal. This appears to us entirely irrelevant to the basis on which the Commissioner (Appeals) came to his conclusion. The grounds say that an appeal has been filed against the order-in-original passed by the Commissioner of Central Excise, Aurangabad which is pending with the Tribunal. We do not see how it follows from this that order presently impugned is legal and proper. The Co...
