(TTP) in the name of Kerala Industrial Products Trading Corporation Ltd. (KSIPTCL), because the learned counsel made it clear that the appeal was confined only to that item which was held against the appellant. 3. It was alleged in paragraph (viii) of the show cause notice dated 2-3-1995, that as per the RG.23A Part II entry at Sl.
