https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=161677 Dressed chicken packed in polythene bags closed by stapling or by crimping and twisting aluminium wire is treated as sold in a sealed container and therefore falls within the taxable entry rather than the exemption for meat and poultry. A sealed container does not require hermetic or airtight closure; it is enough that access to the contents is not possible without breaking the fastening or the container itself. The fastening may be undone, torn, or otherwise removed. On that construction, stapled or crimped bags containing dressed chicken are taxable. en-us Fri, 16 Jan 2004 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 04 Feb 2014 12:33:24 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=161677 Dressed chicken packed in polythene bags closed by stapling or by crimping and twisting aluminium wire is treated as sold in a sealed container and therefore falls within the taxable entry rather than the exemption for meat and poultry.
