Issues: Whether the appellants were entitled to exemption under Notification No. 4/2006-CE for matches where the match splints used in manufacture were procured from another manufacturer who had used power in an earlier process.
Analysis: The exemption was held to depend on whether, in or in relation to the manufacture of the specified goods, the listed processes were ordinarily carried on with the aid of power. The notification was construed strictly, and its language was treated as focusing on the processes connected with the goods rather than on whether the assessee itself personally used power. The burden remained on the assessee to show that the conditions of the exemption were fully satisfied. On the facts, the use of power in the manufacture of the purchased splints brought the case outside the exemption, and the earlier binding view on the same notification was followed.
Conclusion: The appellants were not entitled to the benefit of the exemption notification, and the demand, interest and penalty were upheld against the assessee.
Ratio Decidendi: An exemption notification that denies benefit where specified manufacturing processes are ordinarily carried on with the aid of power is to be strictly construed, and the exemption is unavailable if power is used in any of the specified processes in relation to the goods, irrespective of whether the power is used by the assessee or another person.
