2018 (12) TMI 547 - AT - Central Excise


Issues Involved:
Denial of CENVAT Credit on duty paid for specific goods - MS Angles, Channels, HR Plates, Signal Cables, and Seamless Pipes.

Analysis:

Issue 1: Denial of CENVAT Credit
The appeal was filed against the Order-in-Appeal denying CENVAT Credit on duty paid for MS Angles, Channels, HR Plates, Signal Cables, and Seamless Pipes. The Show Cause Notice alleged that these goods were used in a new unit, not the manufacturing unit, and were ineligible for credit. The adjudicating authority confirmed the denial, leading to the appeal. The Commissioner (Appeals) upheld the demand for a reduced amount, remitting the balance for further examination. The appellant argued that the CENVAT Credit Rules do not require input services to be used only at the manufacturing unit, citing relevant judicial precedents. The appellant also highlighted that the impugned goods were used as support structures, deemed eligible in previous cases. The Department relied on a different High Court decision but lacked substantial evidence for denial. The Tribunal found the remand order unsustainable, as per the precedent set in a previous case, and allowed the appeal, setting aside the impugned order.

This detailed analysis covers the denial of CENVAT Credit on specific goods, the legal arguments presented by both parties, relevant judicial precedents, and the Tribunal's decision based on established legal principles and precedents.
