of <h1>Tribunal Orders Reassessment of Export Evidence, Emphasizes Importance of Statutory Documents in Decision-Making Process.</h1> <h3>Shree Hari Packaging Industries Versus Commissioner of Central Excise, Belapur</h3> Shree Hari Packaging Industries Versus Commissioner of Central Excise, Belapur - TMI Issues involved:The appellant claimed exemption under notification no. 8/2003-CE for clearances of corrugated boxes to merchant exporters. The dispute arose regarding the exclusion of the value of these clearances from the total turnover for the purpose of exemption limit calculation.Details of the judgment:1. The appellant contended that they were not required to register under Central Excise Act, 1944 as their clearances were below the threshold. The original authority dropped proceedings but issued a show cause notice for duty recovery, interest, and penalty. The appellant appealed against this decision.2. The Tribunal noted that the appellant was an unregistered unit and had not followed the prescribed export procedures. The first appellate authority upheld the duty liability based on the lack of evidence showing actual exports of corrugated boxes with fruits/vegetables.3. The Tribunal considered the argument that the containers used for exporting fruits/vegetables were not specifically listed in shipping documents. The appellant had submitted 'form H' as evidence, which was deemed sufficient based on a previous Tribunal decision. The rejection of this evidence by the first appellate authority was found to be incorrect.4. The Tribunal emphasized the importance of statutory documents like 'form H' in proving export of goods. The first appellate authority was directed to reassess the evidence and provide detailed reasons for any non-acceptance of the information contained in 'form H'.5. The Tribunal allowed the appeal by remanding the matter back to the first appellate authority for further examination and clarification.Separate Judgment:There was no separate judgment delivered by the judges in this case.
