Issues: Whether, after remand and re-determination of duty, interest was payable from the date of the first order-in-original or only from the later order passed after remand; and whether the penalty relief granted below warranted interference.
Analysis: The remand order required the adjudicating authority to determine the relevant aspects afresh and the duty ultimately stood re-quantified after remand. The original demand and the post-remand demand were not identical, and the later adjudication reflected a fresh determination of liability with modvat credit being given effect. In these circumstances, the earlier order could not be treated as continuing intact merely because the remand order did not expressly use the words setting aside the order. The penalty was already reduced by the Tribunal.
Conclusion: The question was answered in favour of the appellant, and interest was not to run from the date of the first order-in-original; the penalty relief was left undisturbed.
Final Conclusion: The appeal succeeded on the principal question of law and the impugned judgment was disturbed to that extent, while the penalty component remained as modified.
Ratio Decidendi: Where an adjudication is remanded for fresh determination and the duty liability is re-quantified on remand, the earlier order is treated as not governing the final liability for the purpose of interest, and interest runs from the effective final adjudication after remand.
