Even when the imports are allowed as per the SION norms the actual consumption of the input in the export goods is always variable as compared to the ratio provided under the SION norms. Therefore there is always difference between the input output norms given in SION and the actual input output ratio in the physical manufacture of the goods. Therefore the SION norms cannot be applied in the facts of the present case.

There is no case of the department that either the brass scrap which was cleared to the job worker was diverted otherwise or the same was used in the brass rod which cleared clandestinely.

It is not the case of revenue that due to burning loss, any quantity of either brass scrap or processed rods has been diverted somewhere else instead of bringing to the factory by the appellant. For such situation, whether there is burning loss of 7.5% or even 15% that alone cannot be reason to demand the duty. More over, in the entire proceedings it was not made clear that on which goods the duty was demanded. Annexure B enclosed with the show cause notice also d .....

It is not a department case that the 16% is not a process loss but either it is a physical scrap or removal of inputs as such. In such situation the demand cannot be confirmed. All the judgments relied upon by the Learned Counsel support the case of the appellant. We therefore set aside the impugned order and allow the appeal. From the above decision it can be seen that the facts of the present is identical to that case. As per my discussion and relying on the decision of Kirloskar Oil Engines Ltd.
