Commissioner of Customs (import) Vs. C J. Shah and Co. and ors.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Jun-22-2000

Reported in: (2000)(71)ECC167

1. There four applications seeking early hearing were argued by Shri K.M. Mondal. The revenue involved is about Rs. 16 lakhs. Shri Mondal submits that the goods have not been cleared by the importers. The goods are perishable in nature. Hence the urgency. We find that these appeals have been filed by the Revenue. Earlier similar appeals on the same point have also been filed along with applications for stay of operation thereof by the Revenue. The Tribunal decling to stay operation of the orders, had granted permission to seek early hearing (Order No. C-ll/1008 to 10/WZB/2000, dated 27.3.2000). It appears that the Revenue has so far not moved any such application.2. We grant early hearing in these cases. If in the earlier batch of cases any such application is moved by either side, those cases also be posted for hearing out of turn.3. One of the issues involved in this bunch of appeals is the maintainability of appeals against orders of provisional assessment. In their judgments in th...

The petitioner employee is aggrieved by the order of the Labour Court dated January 23, 1989 denying him back wages during the period between the date of dismissal and the date of the order dated January 23, 1989. It appears that the petitioner was in employment of the respondents as a Mechanic from April 1, 1967. He came to be dismissed from employment with effect from May 18, 1985. At that time he was working as a Driver. It is an admitted fact that he was dismissed for his act of remaining absent unauthorisedly and without getting his leave sanctioned.
