Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd vs Commissioner Of Central Excise ...

Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal10 September 2015

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The order rests on a procedural rule: where the Commissioner (Appeals) has partly remanded a matter for re-examination of CENVAT credit on balance inputs, and the appellant's counsel concedes that the inputs on which credit was denied should likewise be remanded with the Department's consent, the Tribunal may set aside the impugned order and remand the entire matter to the original adjudicating authority for fresh decision together with the part already remanded.

Final Order No. 21895 / 2015

Per : ARCHANA WADHWA

After hearing both the sides, we find that vide his impugned order, Commissioner(Appeals) has partly rejected the appeal by denying the benefit of CENVAT credit in respect of various inputs and has partly remanded the matter to the original adjudicating authority for re-examination of the availability of CENVAT credit in respect of the balance inputs.

2. Learned advocate submits that the items on which he has denied the credit have been held to be covered in terms of various decisions of the courts. However he fairly submits that inasmuch as the matter in respect of balance inputs has been remanded, the inputs involved in the appeal on which he has confirmed the duty may be remanded. Learned AR agrees to the proposal.

3. Accordingly, we set aside the impugned order and remand the matter to original adjudicating authority for fresh decision along with partly remanded matter by Commissioner(Appeals). Appeal is allowed in above manner. (Order pronounced and dictated in open court)
