By that order, the Tribunal has partly allowed all the appeals. With respect to rate of tax on spent malt, the Tribunal has treated the same to be unclassified goods and subjected them at a highest rate after reversing the finding of the first appeal authority in that regard who assessed tax @ 5 % treating them to be old un-serviceable machinery etc. In so far as, rejection of books of account is concerned, the Tribunal has set aside the order passed by the assessing authority and remanded the matter to the assessing authority. 2.

In that case, the Supreme Court held as below: "What is exempted under the Notification of 5.6.85 is cattle fodder. In generic sense the expression "cattle fodder" is inclusive of everything that is fed to cattle including damaged wheat. In the decision relied on by the learned Counsel for the Appellant this aspect is noticed but in that particular case fodder was defined as "fodder except cotton seed and oil cakes". In the present case there is no such exclusion of the damaged wheat that is processed and used as feed for the cattle. If that is so, we do not think that there is any justification to interfere with the view taken by the High Court. The appeal is dismissed.

In so far as the remand proceedings had been stayed by this Court, it has been submitted by learned Standing Counsel that before the interim order came into existence on 12.1.2012, the assessing authority had already passed an order on remand. Sri Nishant Mishra, learned counsel for the assessee would inform that the said exparte order of assessment, was set aside, however, there was second exparte order against which a second recall application is claimed to be pending. 8. In view of earlier decision of this Court in M/s Anant Ram Prem Prakash, Meerut Vs. State of U.P. And another, 2003 NTN (Vol. 23)-697, it is observed, since the assessee had challenged the orde .....

In so far as the Tribunal has dismissed the assessee's appeal on that count and drawn a third conclusion that order is found to be lacking as noted above. It is, accordingly, set aside and the matter is remitted to the Tribunal to pass a fresh order in accordance with law in light of the observation made, as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of three months. 12.
