... ... ... ... ..... , under Section 35C (1) of the Central Excise Act, to do a particular thing within specified parameters and is satisfied, in due course of time, that its direction has been flouted, it can intervene under Rule 41 of the CESTAT (Procedure) rules and pass such orders as may be necessary to give effect to its direction and to secure the ends of justice, unless its direction has been stayed by High Court or Supreme Court. If this power is not exercised in an appropriate case, the departmental authority concerned may arrogate to itself the unwarranted freedom of pushing the assessee into repeated rounds of litigation. 4. I find that in the present case, the Tribunal remanded the matter to the adjudicating authority with certain directions and in pursuance to the order passed by the Tribunal, an appealable order has been passed by the adjudicating authority. In these circumstances, I find no merit in the application, the same is dismissed. (Dictated & pronounced in open Court)

... ... ... ... ..... n 31-3-1997. It is not in dispute that the Assessing Officer recorded the reasons for reopening on 4-11-1997 and issued the notice for reopening of the assessment on 20-11-1997. 5. The reasons for reopening the assessment have been recorded in the order passed by the Tribunal. There is no allegation whatsoever therein that the assessee had failed to disclose fully or truly all material facts necessary for the assessment for the relevant assessment year. The Tribunal accordingly came to the conclusion that the action initiated by the revenue under section 147/148 was barred by limitation. It may be noted that relevant to the assessment year 1994-95, the Tribunal had, under the circumstances, passed a similar order. 6. We find that this is a pure question of fact. In our opinion, the facts that have been referred hereinabove, there is no perversity in the conclusion arrived at by the Tribunal. 7. No substantial question of law arises in this appeal. 8.

... ... ... ... ..... et-tation. In our view consultancy services would involve rendering of professional services and therefore the contention that the services provided by the assessee in this case does not qualify as technical or professional services, does not merit acceptance. 11. On the question whether the services have been rendered from India or in India, as already noticed the clarification issued by the CBDT categorically states that as long as the services are provided to a foreign entity, the mere fact that the information used or services rendered is utilized in India would not describe (sic) the provider of the services to the deduction under section 80-O of the Act. In any event there are concurrent findings both by the CIT(A) and the Tribunal that the services rendered by the assessee in the instant case are from India. We find no infirmity in the said conclusion arrived at by the two authorities. 12. No substantial question of law arises in this appeal. This appeal is dismissed.

... ... ... ... ..... ickness in excess of 0.24 mm. We, therefore, set aside this demand as unsustainable”. It can be seen from the above reproduced order of the Tribunal, that the credit of the duty, as plates having thickness of 0.30 mm and thinner 0.45 mm and thinner, were available to the assessee. In the current appeal by the Revenue before us, the case of the assessee is on a stronger footing. The allegation of the show cause notice itself does not enthuse confidence that the assessee could not have used the tin plates as mentioned in Annexure “B-3”. There is no allegation in the show cause notice that the respondent had not received the said tin plates as mentioned at Annexure”B-3”. 6. As such, we find that the very same order-in-original in respect of an identical allegation has been set aside by the Tribunal in the respondent’s own case. Respectfully, following the same, we find no merits in the appeal filed by the Revenue. The appeal is rejected.

... ... ... ... ..... e question of claiming export rebate arises when the goods are actually exported. 3. It is nobody’s case that part of the raw material was not exported or that the export rebate was claimed on the goods for a quantity other than that was actually exported. It was sought to be contended that claim of Cenvat credit at the first instance itself was fraudulent as the respondents were aware that they were not going to use the goods for manufacture and the real intention of the respondent was to claim Cenvat credit on the exported goods. The facts indicate that a part of the goods was in fact utilised for manufacture. It is possible to envisage situations where the goods procured for the use as input may become surplus for variety of reasons, but it cannot be automatically said that procurement of excess raw material would, by itself, render the claim of Cenvat credit as fraudulent. 4. In the circumstances, we find no substance in the appeal. The same is dismissed.
