EX., COIMBATORE - 2009 (246) E.L.T. 255 (Tri. - Chennai) The Appellate Tribunal CESTAT, Chennai ruled in favor of the appellant, rejecting the Commissioner's decision to deny abatement on the ground of factory closure for less than a month.

The Tribunal set aside the Commissioner's order and allowed the appeal.
