M/S. Ambica Industries vs Commissioner Of Central Excise on 18 May, 2007

In Ambica Industries v. Commissioner of Central Excise the Assessee was from Lucknow. It challenged an order passed by the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (the CESTAT) located in Delhi before the Delhi High Court. The 22 CESTAT had jurisdiction over the States of Uttar Pradesh, NCT of Delhi and Maharashtra. The Delhi High Court did not entertain the proceedings initiated by the Assessee for want of territorial jurisdiction. Dismissing the Assessee's appeal this Court gave the example of an Assessee affected by an assessment order in Bombay invoking the jurisdiction of the Delhi High Court to take advantage of the law laid down by the Delhi High Court or an Assessee affected by an order of assessment made at Bombay invoking the jurisdiction of them Allahabad High Court to take advantage of the law laid down by it and consequently evade the law laid down by the Bombay High Court. It was said that this could not be allowed and circumstances such as this would lead to some sort of judicial anarchy.
