Gordhandas Desai Ltd., Shri M.N. Patel ... vs Commissioner Of Central Excise on 29 October, 2004
(e) Under Section 4 of the Central Excise Act effected on 1.7.2000, reliance placed based by the ld. Commissioner on the proviso to Section 4(2)(d) of the Central Excise Act for demanding Central Excise Duty on erection and commissioning charges cannot be upheld as it is found that in case of Emerson Network Power India Ltd. v. C.C.E., Mumbai & vice versa, appeared in 2004 (114) ECR 689 (Tri.-Mumbai), the Tribunal after examining the charges of duty on installation/commissioning charges and bought-out items maintained that neither of these charges nor value of bought-out items directly dispatched were charged to Central Excise Duty even with effect from 1.7.2000. Nothing contrary has been shown, therefore, the finding of the Commissioner in this regard cannot be upheld.
