CESTAT upheld duty and penalty demand against manufacturer for clandestine goods removal. The tribunal found substantial evidence through private records, managing director's admissions, and corroborative dealer statements demonstrating unaccounted production and clearance of excisable goods.

The evidence, including unrecorded raw material usage and undeclared sales proceeds, substantiated the department's allegations. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, confirming the original adjudicating authority's order with minimal modifications.
