Statutory labelling of a manufacturer's corporate name and address on unit containers does not amount to use of a brand name where the declarations are required for food-safety and legal-metrology compliance. After removal of brand logos, the frozen chicken cuts remained eligible for exemption; the corporate name on packages or invoices did not create a commercial brand connection. Packages supplied exclusively to institutional consumers were not treated as pre-packaged commodities intended for retail sale under the packaged-commodities rules. They therefore fell outside the amended taxable category for pre-packaged and labelled goods. The reported conclusion upheld exemption and deletion of the tax demand, interest and penalty.
