1. These two appeals are against order-in-original dated 12.8.1997 passed by the Commissioner, Central Excise, Mumbai-IV who has: (iv) Imposed penalty of Rs. 6,00,000/- under Rule 9(2) on M/s. M.P. Industries (v) Confiscated land, building, plant etc. under Rule 173Q(2) but allowed redemption on fine of Rs. 10,000/-, and 2. In this ease, the main issue relates to admissibility of exemption under Notification No. 1/93-CE dated 28.2.1993. This Notification grants exemption to small scale units subject to fulfilling certain conditions. Paragraph 4 of the Notification bars exemption to goods bearing a brand name or trade name of another person. Therefore, if a small scale unit produces goods bearing brands of others, it has to pay duty on the same. While such a restriction is understandable, Explanation III to the Notification introduces a totally different dimension. The exemption is available to units not exceeding certain clearance limit. Explanation III specifically excludes from such...
