The Commissioner Of Central Excise & ... vs M/S.Chennai Petroleum Corporation Ltd on 10 July, 2018
(ii) In Tata Engineering & Locomotive Co. Ltd., v. Collector of Central Excise, Pune reported in 2006 (203) ELT 360 (SC), the Hon'ble Supreme Court, dealing with a case, whereby, a cryptic and non-speaking order, the Tribunal upheld the order passed by the Commissioner, by applying the ratio of the decision of a Larger Bench in TISCO Ltd., v. CCE, Madras [2000 (118) ELT 104 (T-LB)], without recording any findings of fact. On the facts and circumstances of the case, the Hon'ble Apex Court, while holding that it is not sufficient in a judgment, to give conclusions alone, but it is necessary to give reasons, in support of the conclusions arrived at, set aside the order of the Tribunal, holding that the findings recorded by the Tribunal therein, were cryptic and non-speaking, and remitted the matter to the Tribunal for taking a fresh decision, by a speaking order, in accordance with law, after affording due opportunity to both the parties.
