... ... ... ... ..... ying upon the judgment of the Supreme Court in (i) Oudh Sugar Mills 1978 (2) ELT J-172 (SC), (ii) AIR 1959(SC) 539, (iii) 1981 (9) ELT J-184 (Mad.) & (iv) S31 TR 508(Ker.), had come to a conclusion that the case made out by the Revenue of unaccounted production by basing calculation on atheoretical consumption of the main ingredients in the medicament,was not sustainable. 3. The ground taken by the Revenue in the appeal did not challenge these findings of the Commissioner that mere is no evidence of clandestine removal and also that merely relying upon the calculations, no duty demands could be made on an assumption and presumption of clandestine manufacture and clearance thereof. In fact, on a perusal of the grounds taken in the present appeal, it is found that there is no challenge to the reasons for dropping the demands as arrived at by the Commissioner. We find no merits in the present appeal. The same is therefore dismissed. 4. Appeal dismissed. Pronounced in Court.

... ... ... ... ..... imited power of making increases and reductions as provided for in the Explanation to the said section. To put it differently, the Assessing Officer does not have the jurisdiction to go behind the net profit shown in the profit and loss account." emphasis supplied 4.4 In the light of the ratio laid down in Apollo Tyres Ltd.’s case (supra) we have no hesitation to hold that once the balance sheet is certified by the authorities under the Companies Act, the Assessing Officer has no jurisdiction to go into the net profit shown in the profit and loss account as reflexed in the balance sheet. 4.5 The core contention of the appellant that the assessee is entitled for depreciation only from the date of installation of usage in respect of additions to fixed assets, but not for the whole year, therefore, is liable to be rejected and accordingly, the substantial questions of law raised for consideration are answered against the revenue. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

... ... ... ... ..... 01 (134) E.L.T. 451 and in the case of Lakeshore Hospital and Research Centre Ltd. v. CC, Kochi, 2001 (135) E.L.T. 1363. In the case of Carrier Aircon Limited the Tribunal has found that the prime function of chillers being to produce chilled water for using a refrigeration circuit, it is classifiable under Chapter Heading 84.18 which covers “refrigerators, freezers and other refrigerating or freezing equipment, ......... other than air-conditioning machines of Heading No. 84.15” and not under Heading 84.15 which covers “air-conditioning machines, comprising a motor driven fan ……..” The present case involves similar function of chilling water for injection moulding machines, drying machines, chemical plant, etc. for process cooling. The ratio of the above decisions is therefore squarely applicable to the present case and following the ratio thereof we uphold the order of the lower appellate authority and reject the appeal of the Revenue.

... ... ... ... ..... for the supply of goods. The aforesaid revision was connected with the S.T.R. No. 1184 of 1993 and S.T.R. No. 1187 of 1993. The office has reported that both the revisions have already been decided. The counsel for the applicant placed the judgment of revision No. 1187 of 1993. The sales tax revision was filed by M/s. National Kisan Industries. This court without any discussion has remanded the matter with the following observation After going through the records in my view this is a fit case where the matter should be remanded back to the Tribunal for recording a fresh finding of fact, after affording an opportunity of hearing to the assessee. The aforesaid short order is not at all helpful for deciding the controversy involved in the present revision. In the result the revision is allowed in part. The dealer is liable to pay sales tax only on the amount of the turnover with regard to the sales made to U.P. Co-operative Sugar Factories Federation Ltd. No order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... utensils and appliances made other than of iron. On a plain reading of entry No. 44 of the aforesaid notification it is not possible to hold that kitchen utensils and appliances, other than made of iron are also covered by the aforesaid entry. Thus 39 tin tray 39 is an unclassified item. The Tribunal has not recorded any such finding that tin tray is a classified item. . The dealer has also treated tin tray as an unclassified item and therefore realised tax from the purchasers at the rate of eight per cent as noticed in the assessment order itself. In the result, the order of the Tribunal as indicated above cannot be sustained and is hereby set aside, so far as it relates to the question of taxability of tin tray is concerned. The rest part of the order of the Tribunal is not subject-matter of the present revision. In the result the revision is allowed. The order of the Tribunal as indicated above is set aside and the order of the first appellate authority is restored back.

... ... ... ... ..... the Tribunal that the watches were transferred by the dealer to Delhi Head Office in pursuance of the prior purchase orders from M/s. Shifco Ltd. The said finding is a finding of fact and is based on the material found at the time of survey dated November 23, 1981. Therefore the dealer-applicant cannot claim parity with the earlier assessment year 1980-81. In the relevant assessment year the department has found certain material and has proved central sales with the help of the material collected by it in the survey dated November 23, 1981. The appellate authority for the earlier assessment year 1980-81 had accepted the case of the dealer with regard to the stock transfer and the said order was set aside by the Tribunal. However, for the assessment year 1981-82 even the first appellate authority held that it was not a case of stock transfer on the basis of the material found in the aforesaid survey. In the result there is no force in the revision. The revision is dismissed.

... ... ... ... ..... be showing it separately in the sale invoices/bills such amount of tax, is not collected by him as an agent of the State. Therefore, even if the bill or voucher issued to the purchaser indicates the amount of entry tax collected separately, what is collected by the dealer from the purchaser is not a tax but a part of the sale price charged by the dealer to the purchaser. In view of the above discussions, in our opinion, the order passed by the Karnataka Appellate Tribunal cannot be sustained for the reason that it has erroneously decided the question of law raised and canvassed before it. In the result, these revision petitions deserve to be allowed and accordingly they are allowed. The order passed by the Karnataka Appellate Tribunal in STA No. 427 of 1997 dated November 30, 1998 and in STA Nos. 220 and 221 of 1999 dated October 25, 1999 respectively are set aside. In the facts and circumstances of the case, parties are directed to bear their own costs. Ordered accordingly.

Thus, on both count, i.e., (1) nonconsideration of the returns submitted by the petitioner along with the sale statement and (2) consideration of the report of the Inspector of Taxes without furnishing the copy of the same to the petitioner, in my considered opinion, the impugned assessment order dated March 11, 1994 is not sustainable.
