The duty determination of the final products has to be uniform in the absence of any notification providing any concessional rate of duty with or without condition. In the present case, admittedly, two types of transactions were undertaken by the appellant. The first one is normal manufacturing activity on the purchased chassis and the final product which is fully built MTT on the motor vehicle is cleared on payment of duty. This is not in dispute.

We are of the view that the Adjudicating Authority fell into serious error in ordering classification under 7308. It is obvious that the goods which are being cleared are motor vehicles on which Telescopic Towers have been mounted. These goods are appropriately classified under heading 8705 as special purpose motor vehicles.
