Activity amounting to manufacture or not - fixing of a lens in a spectacle frame - Post manufacture of the spectacle frames and lenses, the goods are sent separately to the petitioners’ show rooms and what is undertaken in the show room is only an assembly of the prescription lenses and the spectacle frames wherein the lenses are merely mounted upon the frames, to result in a spectacle - The process of assembly is bound to involve some amount of refining and fine-tuning of the individual components and this, by itself, will not tantamount to manufacture. In fact, most establishments engaged in selling eye-wear provide a gamut of services in this area including, having an optician in their employ or on call, and infrastructure for the testing of vision. Thus, notwithstanding that a distinct commercial product is obtained upon assembly of a lens with a spectacle frame, this would not result in such assembly being equated to manufacture.- HC
