Whether the first respondent - Tribunal is right in holding that Rule 173G(1)(d) of C.E. Rules and/Rule 8 of CE Rules, 2001 are applicable to the present case?

The Commissioner (Appeals) had held that Rule 173G(1)(d) of Central Excise Rules, 1944 and Rule 8 of Central Excise Rules, 2001/2002 can only be invoked where there was failure in fortnightly/monthly payment of duty and there is no finding that there was such failure.
