"Although aluminium waste and scrap are described as such yet these are final product and distinct excisable commodity falling under Chapter sub-heading No. 7602. 00 of the Schedule to the Central Excise Tariff Act, 1985.

The appeal stands dismissed. - - TaxTMI - TMITa ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
