1997 (2) TMI 117 - SC - Central Excise

Summary

The Supreme Court upheld the Customs Tribunal's decision requiring appellants to make a pre-deposit of Rs. 65,65,020 for their appeal. The Tribunal found no prima facie case and rejected the plea of financial difficulties, as the appellants were a public sector undertaking. The Court allowed the appellants to deposit the sum within 6 weeks, failing which their appeal would be dismissed.
