Kitex Garments Limited vs The Commissioner Of Customs (Appeals) on 27 July, 2006
4. On a careful consideration, we notice that Note 2 to Chapter 49 has clearly indicated that the term "printing" includes embossing. The same meaning has been given in the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, 3rd Edition, therefore, the ratio laid down by the Supreme Court in the case of CC v. Maestro Motors Ltd. (supra) and the Larger Bench judgment of the Tribunal in the case of India Airlines (supra) would clearly apply to the facts of the case. The meaning given to the term can be read while interpreting the words in a Notification as held in the Apex Court ruling. Portion of Para 9 of the said judgment is reproduced herein below.
