Collector had confirmed the short levy demand and denied the benefit of the notification in question on the ground that the new units had not been registered and in same cases has held that even if there is registration to the new unit, the benefit is available only from the date of amendment of the certificate incorporating the new address and therefore short levy is recoverable for the interim period when the unit did not have the registration. 5. The ld. Collector has disagreed with the Original Authority and has held in order-in-appeal No. 304 305/91 dated 14th March 91 in the case of Paras Electricals Peripherals India as follows : These two appeals as per details below involve a common issue and are being disposed of by this single order : S.

The appellants are eligible for getting the benefit of para 4(b) in view of the reasons given above. The benefit of Notification No. 175/86 will be available to them if otherwise due and admissible in terms of other conditions of this Notification. 4. In view of the above, I annul the order of the Asstt.

The appeal is disposed of accordingly." In all other appeals, similar order has been passed by the Collector as above. 6. The Revenue is aggrieved with these findings and are contending in these appeals that since the party is not registered as SSI unit as required under para 4 of the Notification No. 175/86, dated 1-3-1986 as amended they are not entitled to the benefit of the said notification.
