Issues: Assessable value of oils supplied by the appellant to other oil marketing companies.
Analysis: The dispute in the present appeal revolves around the assessable value of oils supplied by the appellant to other oil marketing companies as per the MOU. The lower authorities had confirmed the demands based on the assessable value at which the appellant sold the oil to its dealers. The Tribunal referred to various decisions to settle the issue at hand. In the case of Hindustan Petroleum Corpn. Ltd. v. CCE, the Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, and the Revenue's appeal against the assessee was dismissed by the Supreme Court. Another relevant decision cited was Indian Oil Corpn. Ltd. v. CCE, Goa. These decisions, along with others, were considered to support the appellant's case. Despite a contrary decision in the case of Bharat Petroleum Corpn. Ltd., the Tribunal distinguished it in a subsequent matter involving Commissioner of Central Excise, Cochin v. M/s. Kochi Refineries Ltd. Given the decisions in the appellant's own case and others confirmed by the Supreme Court, the Tribunal decided to follow the same precedent. Consequently, the impugned order was set aside, and the appeal was allowed with consequential relief to the appellant.
