1 - 3 of 3 (0.25 seconds)Indian Aluminium Co. Ltd. And Another vs A.K. Bandyopadhyay And Others on 1 January, 1800
Ltd. & Anr. v. A.K. Bandyopadhyay & Ors., [1980] ELT 146.
The question that the tribunal had to decide was whether the
set off of duty paid on inputs was admissible only if the
finished excisable goods manufactured therefrom, was not
exempted from duty.The process of manufacture and the out-
come of ethynol are not in dispute. The tribunal was of the
view that the judgment of the Bombay High Court had held
that dross skimmings thrown off in the process of manufac-
ture and aluminium sheets were not end products or finished
or by-products merely because such refuge might fetch some
price in the market. The High Court had further held that
proviso to sub-rule 56-A will have no application and the
skimmings cannot be said to be finished excisable goods.
These were not exempted from the whole of duty of excise or
chargeable to nil rate of duty whereas the sub-rule pre-
scribed that the credit is admissible if the material is
used in the manufacture of finished goods which are exempt
from duty or are chargeable to nil rate of duty. The Tribu-
nal was of the opinion that the factual background'of the
case before the Bombay High court was different and there-
fore, it was of the opinion that the said decision was not
applicable in the instant case.
