Dear Experts,
Two Independent Partnership firm are located in the one premises only separate records are maintained
Generally Clubbing should be applied for the purpose of calculating the turnover(SSI units) But i read the judgement of CCE v. Standard Watch Co. P ltd. - 2000(119) ELT 703(Cestat) = 2000 (1) TMI 277 - CEGAT, NEW DELHI In this case it is clearly stated that Clubbing will not apply.
I am confused, Please advice
Thank you in advance.
