The lower authorities have denied the benefit of the Modvat credit during the aforesaid period and they have asked the appellants to pay back the aforesaid amount of Modvat credit since utilised by them. Hence this appeal before the Tribunal. 2. Ld. Consultant, Shri K.K. Bhattacharjee drawing attention to the enclosure to the show cause notice submits that entries at Sl. Nos. 1 to 11 in respect of Modvat credit taken by them and which are now disal .....

It cannot be disputed as held by a number of decisions of the Tribunal i.e. 'Steel Forging' remains a forging till the stage of proof machining. Therefore, the goods actually brought as an input tally with the description as declared by the appellants in their declaration under Rule 57G i.e. Steel Forging. 3.5 At this stage; ld. SDR, Shri K.K. Biswas points out that the invoices indicate that they have been cleared under Headings 84.83 and 84.55 which are headings for parts of machineries and, therefore, w .....
