Under the aforementioned facts and on inquiry by the Revenue, it appeared to Revenue that the appellant appears to have not received the capital goods and have taken cenvat credit, which appeared to be not admissible to them. Accordingly, the show cause notice dated 4.7.2014 was issued proposing to demand cenvat credit of ₹ 4,22,300/- including cess with proposal to appropriate the amount already deposited and further, the deposit of interest of ₹ 1,41,450/- through PLA.
