The CESTAT rejected the appeal as it was filed beyond the period of limitation. The appellant argued that it had already filed an appeal challenging the levy of Anti-Dumping Duty on the same products, which was pending before the CESTAT. The notification extending the levy of Anti-Dumping Duty was challenged by the appellant as well. The main question was whether the CESTAT was correct in rejecting the appeal based on limitation. The High Court found that the CESTAT failed to appreciate that the appellant was not raising any new ground but was seeking to keep the earlier appeal alive. The Court noted that the appellant's limited grievance was with regard to two specific chemicals, not the entire product category. Therefore, the High Court set aside the CESTAT's order and restored the appeal before the CESTAT for consideration on merits. The respondent suggested certain terms and costs, and the Court agreed that the appellant must deposit a sum of Rs. 1,00,000 with the Ministry of Finance, Government of India, within two weeks for the appeal to be restored before the CESTAT.
