Commr. of C. Ex. and Cus. Vs. Susha Founders and Engineers

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-08-2000

Reported in: (2000)(121)ELT546Tri(Mum.)bai

1. As is so often the case, there is absolutely no ground shown in support of the department's stay applications. However, as the issue for consideration in these appeals itself is covered by judgement of the Supreme Court, Madras High Court and various decisions of the Tribunal we take up the appeals themselves for disposal.2. The issue in these appeals is whether the notional interest on advances received by the assessees from its buyers towards the purchase of the goods, should form part of the assessable value. Adjudicating on the notices issued to the assessees, proposing such addition, the Assistant Commissioner confirmed the proposal. The Commissioner (Appeals) allowed the appeals filed by the assessees. The Commissioner (Appeals) held that the department had not shown that the fact of advances had resulted in depression of the price and therefore the notional interest should not form part of the assessable value.3. The ground in these appeals is that the Commissioner has erred...

Nasik Breeding and Research Farm Vs. Commr. of Cus.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-08-2000

Reported in: (2000)(121)ELT534Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The somewhat unusual facts leading to this appeal are these. The appellant imported two consignments of live day old chicks. It is a matter of fairly common knowledge that such chicks are imported by poultry farmers for being reared into layers i.e. hens which lay eggs and broilers i.e. chicken which will be brough shold for its meat. A bill of entry for each consignment was presented in advance prior to the arrival of the consignment and duty paid, no doubt to ensure that there would be as little delay as possible in clearing these chicks which, because of their young age are vulnerable. But that has precisely happened. Ninety five per cent of the chiks in one consignment and 90% in the other consignment died. The date of their death is in issue in this appeal. It is however a matter of record that postmortem examination was conducted on some of the dead chicks and the finding of the Deputy Superintendent, city and Harbour, Animal Husbandry and District Animal Husbandry Officer, M...

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-07-2000

Reported in: (2000)(121)ELT109Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The question for consideration in this appeal is what is the correct method for determining the quantity of liquid cargo - crude petroleum oil in the present case - imported in a tanker and pumped on to shore tanks, for purposes of assessment to duty. In the case before us the quantity of oil declared on the bill of entry by the importer and assessed provisionally pending ullage survey was 64000 MT. The ullage survey carried out in the presence of the carrier, the customs and port trust officials showed the quantity to be 65107.552 MT. Duty on the difference between the two quantities was demanded from the importer.In the reply to the notice, the importer contended that a more correct method of determining the quantity of goods imported would be dip measurement in the tanks on shore into which the oil is pumped from the tanker and by this measurement there is no excess goods imported. The Asstt. Commissioner declined to accept this plea and confirm the demand.2. The importer appeal...
