of <h1>Revenue appeals dismissed on press mud, bagasse, compost fertilizer exemption. Tribunal upholds decision.</h1> <h3>COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE, PUNE-II Versus DY PATIL SSK LTD</h3> COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE, PUNE-II Versus DY PATIL SSK LTD - TMI Issues:1. Appeal against dropping of demand for press mud, bagasse, and compost fertilizer cleared without payment of duty by sugar manufacturers.Analysis:The Revenue filed appeals against an order by the Commissioner (Appeals) dropping the demand for press mud, bagasse, and compost fertilizer cleared without duty payment by sugar manufacturers. The Revenue issued Show Cause Notices demanding amounts equal to a percentage of the goods' price cleared without duty, alleging that the manufacturers were availing credit on common inputs used in manufacturing goods cleared at nil duty rate under Rule 6(3) of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004.The Commissioner (Appeals) relied on previous Tribunal decisions in the impugned order. The Tribunal, in the case of Indian Potash Ltd vs CCE, Allahabad, and Eco Cane Sugar Energy Ltd, set aside demands for bagasse and press mud, respectively, based on the nature of these materials as waste obtained during sugar manufacturing. The Tribunal's decisions were supported by the Hon'ble Allahabad High Court's ruling in related cases.Based on the precedents and the nature of the materials in question, the Tribunal found no error in the Commissioner (Appeals)'s order. Consequently, the appeals filed by the Revenue were dismissed.
