The Appellate Tribunal CESTAT CHENNAI dismissed six appeals involving amounts below Rs. 5 lakhs each as they were filed in contravention of the Board's instruction dated 17-8-2011 under Section 35R of the Central Excise Act, 1944, which states that no appeals are required for cases below Rs. 5 lakhs. The appeals were not maintainable, and thus, they were dismissed along with stay petitions.
