..... asses mixture/Diluter Safety System (heading 73.26) and Aluminium Coils (Sub-heading 7606.20). The original authority denied the credit on the said capital goods which was upheld by the Commissioner (Appeals).

In earlier Order dated 19-4-2007 Commissioner (Appeals) observed that Molasses mixture/Dilute Safety System is a part of system of mixing of Molasses. It is seen that system of mixing of molasses is part of sugar manufacturing system. It is further observed that Aluminium Coil is used for obtaining optimum temperature in cooling system. I find that in the same Order-in-Appeal, Commissioner (Appeals) allowed credit on "Vessels for Cooling" used to obtain optimum temperature in cooling system.
