The appellants herein manufacture electrical contacts of various kinds and they cleared the same either with or without electroplating (silver plating). They had filed the classification list No. 15/85 in which they had claimed that electroplating on job work basis (which they do in addition to their own manufacture), was not a manufacturing process within the meaning of Section 2 .....

In some processes, such as chromium plating, a piece of metal which is essentially insoluble in the plating solution is the anode. When such insoluble anodes are used, metal ions in the form of soluble compounds must also be added periodically to the plated solution. The anode area is generally about the same as that of the cathode; in som ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
