....of the Department as per the respective impugned orders. Similarly feeling aggrieved by the orders passed by the concerned Collectors (Appeals) on the very issue, M/s. Coimbatore Rajendra Industries and M/s. Precision Stamping are also filed appeals in 2689/92 & 3421/92. Hence all these matters are clubbed together and are being disposed of by this common order. 2. We have heard Shri V. Sridharan, learned Counsel for the parties and Department was duly represented by Shri S.K. Sharma, learned JDR. 3. Notification No. 64/86 as amended by Notification No. 236/86 is reproduced as under: 'MACHINERY, APPLIANCES AND IMPLEMENTS In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-rule (1) of rule 8 of the Central Excise Rules, 1944, the Central Governme....

.... 5.3 He also drew our attention to the observation made by the Bombay High Court in the case of Acme Mfg. Co. Ltd.

Since Notification 217/85 is similar to that of exemption Notification 64 of 1986 as amended, benefit of exemption should be extended to items in question which are parts of the part of power driven pumps.
