The case involves a refund claim filed by the appellant u/s 11B of the Central Excise Act, 1944, following an appellate tribunal's order. The deposits made were not voluntary but under compulsion from departmental officers. The appellant contested the demand successfully, leading to the deposits being considered as made under protest.

The appeal was allowed by CESTAT Allahabad.
