Issues: Whether the benefit of Notification No. 74/93-CE was available to goods manufactured by the State Electricity Board, and whether the matter required remand for consideration of other issues including limitation.
Analysis: The Tribunal noted that the controversy was already covered by the Larger Bench decision holding that a State Electricity Board is not a Government department, and that the notification benefit was available only to goods manufactured in a factory belonging to the State Government intended for use by a Government department. In view of that binding view, the Tribunal found that the adjudicating authority had not examined the matter afresh on all relevant aspects, including limitation.
Conclusion: The notification benefit was not available to the goods manufactured by the State Electricity Board, and the matter was required to be reconsidered by the adjudicating authority afresh.
Final Conclusion: The impugned order was set aside and the proceedings were remanded for fresh decision after granting an opportunity to the respondents.
Ratio Decidendi: A State Electricity Board is not a Government department for the purpose of the exemption, and entitlement under the notification depends on manufacture in a State Government factory for Government departmental use.
