Applying the ratio of the Apex Court in CCE, Hyderabad v. Electrolytic Foils Ltd. (reported in 1997 (91) E.L.T. 543 (SC)), where an appeal was dismissed for want of prosecution because the respondent's unit had closed and could not be served, the Tribunal concluded that the same principle applies. The Board's review of the Commissioner's earlier order without producing fresh evidence did not alter the fact that service on the respondent was impossible in the present proceedings, and therefore the appeal could not be pursued.Appeal dismissed for want of prosecution as the respondent cannot be served due to closure of the unit.Final Conclusion: The appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution because the respondent's unit has ceased to exist and service of notices was not possible; the Tribunal applied the Apex Court's precedent to reach this result. The Appellate Tribunal CEGAT, Chennai dismissed a Revenue appeal against Order-in-Original No. 104/92. The Commissioner dropped proceedings against the respondents as the Revenue failed to prove that certain units were dummy units. The Tribunal directed the Commissioner to serve notices, but the respondents were found not in existence. The appeal was dismissed following the Apex Court judgment in a similar case where the unit had closed down, and the respondents could not be served.
