....3. 2. Mr. Nankani, learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant would submit that the questions proposed at pages 9 and10 of the paper-book are all substantial questions of law.

The argument to the contrary was that the exemption was not attracted because the assessee could not establish and prove that the cement was required for use in the generation and distribution of electricity. 9.
