The CESTAT adjudicated on various demands and penalties imposed on the appellants. The key findings are: The demand on account of undervaluation of goods cleared to two non-existent dealers was upheld along with interest and penalty equal to duty. The benefit of exemption notification was denied proportionately for traded goods, and the matter was remanded for re-quantification. The substantial demand for alleged clandestine removal of Fatty Acid in the guise of Refined Palm Oil was set aside due to lack of evidence.
