of <h1>Court grants exemption to small-scale fabricators under government notification, ruling in favor of petitioners</h1> <h3>PM ABDUL LATIF AND OTHERS Versus ASSISTANT COLLECTOR OF CENTRAL EXCISE, TRICHIRAPALLI AND OTHERS</h3> PM ABDUL LATIF AND OTHERS Versus ASSISTANT COLLECTOR OF CENTRAL EXCISE, TRICHIRAPALLI AND OTHERS - 1985 (22) E.L.T. 758 (Mad.) Issues Involved: Interpretation of a government notification regarding exemption of excise duty for certain goods manufactured by small-scale industries.Summary:1. The batch of writ petitions involved the interpretation of a government notification dated 18th June, 1977, regarding the exemption of excise duty for goods falling under a specific category cleared for home consumption by small-scale manufacturers. 2. The petitioners, small-scale industries engaged in structural fabrications, sought relief from interference with their manufacturing activities based on the mentioned notification.3. The petitioners, acknowledged as manufacturers under the Central Excises and Salt Act, were found eligible for the exemption as their capital investment in plant and machinery did not exceed the specified limit, and the value of goods cleared did not surpass the prescribed threshold.4. The argument raised against granting the exemption to the petitioners, based on them manufacturing goods on behalf of another entity, was deemed irrelevant as the notification did not impose such a restriction. The eligibility for exemption was affirmed based on the criteria specified in the notification.5. The contention that the exemption applied only to manufacturers directly selling finished goods to third parties was dismissed, as the notification did not contain such a limitation. The court ruled in favor of the petitioners, directing the authorities not to demand excise duty on the goods manufactured by them in accordance with the notification.6. The judgment clarified that the exemption from excise duty applied to the goods manufactured by the petitioners, and no costs were awarded in the case.Separate Judgment: No separate judgment was delivered by the judges.
