The Assistant Collector as well as the Appellate Collector have held that the impugned Gear Boxes do not constitute part of the roller mills which are sugar manufacturing and refining machinery classifiable under Heading 84.30(2) inasmuch as the roller mill is a complete machinery even without the gear box and the mechanism for transmitting power for its driving through the impugned gear box does not constitute a part of the roller mill as a single unit.

The Government observe that the lower authorities have unduly tied up the question of entitlement to the benefit of the Notification No. 35-Cus./79 with the question of classification of the impugned goods under Heading 84.30(2) vis a-vis Heading 84.63 of CTA 1975.
