Imported Manufacturing Accessories Deemed Capital Goods, Customs Duty Demand Overturned for Essential Production Equipment

May 26, 2025

Case Laws     Customs     AT

CESTAT allowed the appeal, holding that imported goods (Crucible Pot, pot Ring, Abrasive Belt, PVA wheels, Bevelling Cone and Refractories) qualify as 'capital goods' under the notification. The Tribunal found these items are essential accessories for manufacturing glassware, directly or indirectly supporting production processes. Consequently, the Customs duty demand was set aside, and the previously appropriated deposited amounts were deemed unwarranted. The Tribunal rejected duty, interest, and penalty claims, providing full relief to the appellant based on the interpretation of 'capital goods' definition.
