Issues: Whether cement packed in 50 kg bags and sold to industrial/institutional consumers was entitled to exemption under Notification No. 4/2006-CE dated 01.03.2006.
Analysis: The dispute turned on the scope of Sl. No. 1C of the exemption notification and the effect of the second proviso to the Explanation thereto. The Tribunal applied its earlier decisions which had already interpreted the notification to mean that cement cleared in 50 kg bags to industrial/institutional consumers was eligible for the benefit, and that such goods would fall within the notification by virtue of Sl. No. 1B or 1C. As the facts were identical, the prior ratio was followed and the denial of exemption was held unsustainable.
Conclusion: The exemption under Notification No. 4/2006-CE was available to the disputed clearances, and the demand of duty and penalty was set aside in favour of the assessee.
