..... 2007 in terms of which he has allowed the appeals filed by the department and held that the assessing authority has erred in granting the rebate. The order-in-appeal has been passed on the ground that the original authority has wrongly granted rebate of duty paid on goods exported inasmuch as the petitioner availed of exemption from customs duty under Notification No. 43/2002-Cus., dated 19-4-2002 on inputs imported and used in the manufacture of the products exported.

It has concluded that corrigendum is nothing but a correction and therefore, it relates back to the date of the notification corrected. It has been held thus : "In my opinion, Notification No. 4841 is in the nature of a correction (corrigendum) and, therefore, it dates back to the date of the notification corrected thereby, namely, June 11, 1974, on which date Notification No. 3867 was issued.
