The essential ingredient of Inter State Sale viz., movement of goods commencing from one State to another in pursuance of the pre-existing contract is not satisfied in the present case also. The concurrent findings of the two Appellate Authorities in favour of the Asessee do not call for any interference by this Court in the Writ jurisdiction.

While allowing the appeal of the respondent, the learned Appellate Assistant Commissioner had given his categorical findings in his order at pages 3 to 5 under Point No.(i) and (ii). From the above finding, we could safely conclude that the Appellate Assistant Commissioner is justified in allowing the exemption on consignment sales effected by the respondents as well as the deletion of penalty. The Appellate Assistant Commissioner had come to a correct conclusion and allowed the appeal of the respondents. The Depart ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X .....

In the absence of evidence in this behalf as regards the quantity of goods indented, supplied and ordered it is difficult to reach a positive conclusion. We, therefore, deem it appropriate that the matters be remitted to the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal, Tamil Nadu, which may decide the matter after calling for the record from the authority below and in the light of the decisions referred to above, if necessary, by even calling for fresh evidence.
