The text addresses interest liability for long-delayed excise rebate claims, stating that interest accrues from expiry of the statutory three-month period after application and that an abnormal delay justifies payment of interest at a higher commercial rate rather than the standard low statutory rate.

The consequence is allowance of the appeal with consequential relief awarding higher rate interest on the rebate.
