The respondent, engaged in manufacturing Miscellaneous Chemicals, cleared Waste Crude Oil at nil duty under Tariff Item No. 2710 99 00. The Revenue challenged this classification, issuing a Show Cause Notice alleging misclassification under Tariff Item No. 3814 00 10 and demanding Central Excise duty. The Order-in-Original and the Commissioner (Appeals) both upheld the classification of Waste Crude Oil under Tariff Item No. 2709 00 00. The Tribunal reviewed a prior Final Order that equated Waste Crude Oil with 'Residual Crude Petroleum Oil,' confirming its classification under Tariff Item No. 2709 00 00. Consequently, the Tribunal dismissed the Revenue's appeal, affirming the classification and granting the appellant consequential relief in accordance with the law.
