The appellate authority by the order impugned (by Revenue) in this appeal concluded that the finality of this Tribunal’s order dated 2.11.2005 is not liable to be ignored nor a fresh order of assessment passed contrary thereto.

CST [2013 (5) TMI 57 - CESTAT, NEW DELHI], wherein following the judgment of the Gujarat High Court in CCE Vs. Eimco Elecon Ltd.
