The CESTAT allowed the appeal by way of remand to the Adjudicating Authority. The appellant raised new grounds in the miscellaneous application which were not considered by the authorities below. To uphold principles of natural justice, the matter was remanded to the Adjudicating Authority to consider the additional grounds raised by the appellant afresh on merits.
