in the case of J.K.Cotton Spinning and Weaving Mills
Co. Limited (supra) will have to be applied to the
present case. The Appellate Tribunal ought to have
applied its mind to the question whether the
welding electrodes were used by the Appellant
directly or indirectly in the manufacture of final
products or in relation to manufacture of final
products. The expression "in the manufacture of
final products" should normally encompass the entire
process carried on of converting raw material into
finishing goods. The question is whether the
particular process in which the electrodes were used
was integrally related to the ultimate manufacture
of goods so that without that activity or process,
the manufacture though theoretically possible, but
would be commercially inexpedient.
