Issues: Whether submersible pumps and nozzle vulkan imported for installation in decorative pumps were covered by the definition of consumer goods under the EXIM Policy 1992-97.
Analysis: The Tribunal noted that the goods were not imported by an individual to satisfy a human desire or need, but for installation in decorative pumps. It found no reason to depart from its earlier order in the respondents' own case, and held that the goods did not fall within the expression consumer goods or consumer durables for the purpose of the policy.
Conclusion: The goods were not consumer goods under the EXIM Policy 1992-97, and the Revenue's appeal failed.
Final Conclusion: The classification granted by the lower appellate authority was upheld and the Revenue's challenge was rejected.
Ratio Decidendi: Goods imported for installation in decorative equipment, and not for satisfying a human need or desire, do not constitute consumer goods or consumer durables within the relevant import policy definition.
