The record indicated that a cross-appeal was also filed by the respondent-assessee, and the impugned order was upheld by the jurisdictional High Court of Bombay [2010 (259) ELT 24 (Bom.)] and the Supreme Court [2011 (270) ELT A156 (SC)]. Given that both the High Court and the Supreme Court had upheld the impugned order, the Appellate Tribunal found no reason to interfere, as it was sustained by following the ratio laid down by the Supreme Court.Therefore, the Appellate Tribunal, comprising Justice Dr. Satish Chandra and Shri C J Mathew, Member (Technical), dismissed the appeal filed by the department. The judgment was dictated and pronounced in the open court, emphasizing the finality of the decision based on the previous rulings of the higher courts.
