As per the Panchnama, on taking physical stock of the raw material it was found that the physical stock of raw materials tallied with the recorded stock.

Shri Rahul Gajera, learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant submits that the alleged excess stock of 102.415M.Tons of MS TMT Bars was part of the production of 13.01.2015 i.e. on the day of search could not have been entered in the RG-1 Register written up to the stage of opening balance on 13.01.2015. It is admitted fact that the RG- 1 Register was taken over by the officers in their custody immediately on visit of the appellant's factory at 11.45 am, the Panchnama proceedings carried out whole day and night till the next morning up to 6.30am on 14.01.2015.During this period the production was continuing, the alleged excess stock of 102.415 was the production of the same period when the panchnama proceeding was going on.

The panchnama started at 11.45 am on 13.01.2015 and lasted on 14.01.2015 at 6.30 am.

From the RG-1 Register it is evident that the production was continuously going all the days till 12.01.2015. Therefore, it cannot be presumed that there is no production on 13.01.2015. As per raw material register i.e. Form No IV submitted by the appellant it is observed that there is a consumption of 124.530M.Tons of MS Ingots recorded on 13.01.2015 out of which the production was shown .....
