Writ petition converted to statutory appeal route, with papers to be filed as a memorandum under Section 35G.

The Madras HC treated the petitioner's grievance as more appropriately remediable through a civil miscellaneous appeal rather than in writ proceedings and closed the writ petition. The Court directed conversion of the matter into the proper appellate form, with the papers to be represented as a memorandum of appeal under Section 35G of the Central Excise Act, 1944. The operative effect was to channel the dispute into the statutory appeal route instead of continuing with writ adjudication.
