Valuation (Central Excise) - Boughtout items - Flushing cistern Issues involved: Valuation of flushing cistern parts and accessories.Summary:Issue 1: Valuation of flushing cistern partsThe appellants manufactured the ceramic portion of the flushing cistern and provided additional fittings like handle assembly, ball valve assembly, overflow assembly, syphon assembly, outlet flange assembly, and flush pipe assembly to make it functional. The Revenue argued that these fittings are essential parts of the cistern and should be included in the assessable value. The Tribunal considered previous judgments and held that the boughtout items should be considered as accessories only, not integral parts of the cistern. Citing the decision of the Bombay High Court, the Tribunal ruled that the value of the boughtout items is not includable in the assessable value of the cistern, as they are accessories and not essential parts. The Tribunal distinguished this case from previous rulings where certain items were deemed integral to the main product, emphasizing that in this instance, the boughtout items were not integral to the ceramic cistern manufactured by the appellants.Conclusion:The Tribunal allowed the appeal, considering the boughtout items as accessories only, and ruled that their value should not be included in the assessable value of the flushing cistern.
