If the items cleared have attained individual identity and finality it cannot be said it is not a device. Therefore, taking into consideration the specific description under which the exemption is allowed, we have no hesitation in allowing the exemption as the items in question are only devices for the purpose of conversion of the waste material into non conventional energy for which purpose the exemption is granted.

The original authority did not accept the above grounds and denied the exemption on the grounds stated in the Show Cause Notice. 3. On appeal before the Commissioner (Appeals), the appellant explained the grounds in details emphasizing the point that the entire device as such could not be transported in one lot and the lower adjudicating authority did not appreciate the technical details and methodology followed by the appellants affecting the clearances.
