of <h1>Classification of Ion Exchange Resin under Central Excise Tariff: Key Rulings and Duty Implications</h1> <h3>IN RE : TULSI FINE CHEMICALS INDUSTRIES (P) LTD. AND OTHERS</h3> IN RE : TULSI FINE CHEMICALS INDUSTRIES (P) LTD. AND OTHERS - 1982 (10) E.L.T. 790 (G. O. I.) Issues: Classification of Ion Exchange Resin under Central Excise TariffIn this judgment, the central issue revolves around the correct classification of Ion Exchange Resin under the Central Excise Tariff. The process involves the production of Divinyl Benzene Co-polymer Beads (D.V.B. Beads) and subjecting them to certain processes to obtain the final product, Ion Exchange Resin. The Appellate Collectors had differing opinions on the classification of Ion Exchange Resin under Tariff Item 15A(1)(ii) of the Central Excise Tariff for various parties. The main contention was whether Ion Exchange Resin should be classified as resin under this tariff item based on its properties. The parties argued that the mere use of the term 'resin' does not automatically imply resinous properties, and further treatment of D.V.B. beads may result in a product without resinous properties. The judgment also references a Tariff Advice clarifying that only Ion Exchange Resins with resinous properties should be classified under Tariff Item 15A(1)(ii), while those without resinous properties fall under Tariff Item 68. The Government ordered testing of samples of Ion Exchange Resin from each party to determine their resinous properties. If found to possess resinous properties, the resin would be classified under Tariff Item 15A(1)(ii); otherwise, it would fall under Tariff Item 68. The judgment emphasized that if goods are classified under Tariff Item 68, duty should be charged from the time this tariff item came into force, and any excess duty charged should be refunded. The judgment concluded by directing testing of all varieties of Ion Exchange Resin manufactured by the parties to determine their classification under the Central Excise Tariff.This judgment addresses the classification issue of Ion Exchange Resin under the Central Excise Tariff, specifically under Tariff Item 15A(1)(ii).

The Government ordered testing of samples of Ion Exchange Resin from each party to determine their resinous properties. If found to possess resinous properties, the resin would be classified under Tariff Item 15A(1)(ii); otherwise, it would be classified under Tariff Item 68.
