..... , the Tribunal, as the last fact finding authority, performed its duty in law and interfered with the orders, though concurrently rendered. Once they were interfered because they were found to be perverse and vitiated by error of law apparent on the face of the record, then, the impugned order of the Tribunal in that behalf does not raise any substantial question of law. - Decided against the revenue. - Central Excise Appeal No. 109 of 2004 - - - Dated:- 21-1-2015 - S.
