Issues: Whether the benefit of Notification No. 6/2002-CE was available to the machine manufactured by the appellant, and whether the factual controversy as to the existence and nature of a combined milling and scouring machine required fresh examination.
Analysis: The dispute turned on whether the expression in the exemption entry covered a scouring machine or only a combined milling and scouring machine. The record showed a conflict between the appellant's expert opinion, which stated that milling and scouring machines are different and not complementary, and the findings relied on by the appellate authority from technical literature indicating the existence of combined machines in the woollen industry. Since the factual basis on the nature of the machine went to the root of the exemption claim, the correct interpretation of the notification could not be finally decided without resolving that factual issue.
Conclusion: The impugned order was set aside and the matter was remanded to the Commissioner (Appeals) for fresh adjudication after examining whether a combined scouring and milling machine exists, on the basis of the evidence produced by both sides.
