That the appellant is also availing benefit of CENVAT Credit under the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004. The appellant is alleged to have availed in-eligible CENVAT Credit of the duty paid on the tubes and flaps since they are neither inputs nor accessories/ components for manufacture of tyres and that the tyres are marketable as such even without tubes and flaps.
