I am directed to draw your attention to Board's Circular No. 6/91 dated 11.4.91 wherein it was clarified that wax coated canvas cloth would merit classification under heading 59.06 of the Central Excise Tariff if there is formation of visible layer on the surface of the fabric and not merely a change of colour or some residue. If, on the other hand, there is no visible layer formation, then the said wax proofed/ tarpaulin cloth would be classifiable in Chapter 52 of the Central Excise Tariff as water proofed cloth, provided that base fabrics are cotton fabrics. It also clarified therein that a 'layer' should be distinguished from mere presence of residues in uneven patches. 2.

(xi) In the instant case, Chapter Note 2(a) for heading 5903 specifically excludes the fabrics mentioned at Sr.No.1 to 5 of the note where the appellant's fabric falls under Sr.No.2 along with other exclusion clauses; that in exclusion at Sr.No.2, it is specifically mentioned that such....

....present merely for reinforcing purposes, are also classified in Chapter 39 (see General Explanatory Note to Chapter 39, part entitled "Plastics and textile combinations", penultimate paragraph). The laminated fabrics of this heading should not be confused with fabrics which are simply assembled in layers by means of a plastic adhesive. These fabrics, which have no plastics showing in cross-section, generally fall in Chapter 50 to 55. In many of the textile fabrics classified here, the plastic material, usually coloured, forms a surface layer which may be smooth or be embossed to simulate e.g. the grain of leather ("leather cloth"). This heading also covers dipped fabrics (other than those of heading 59.02), impregnated to improve their adhesion to rubber, and textile fabrics which are spattered by spraying with visible particles of thermoplastic material and are capable of providing a bond to other fabrics or materials on the application of heat and pressure. 11.3 The appellant has also stated that while examining the test results of their sample product (which they have obtained from ATIRA, Ahmedabad), GAAR compared the Explanatory Notes of HSN with samples and not with the chap....

....ntion that the fabric is partially coated or partially covered with plastics and bears designs resulting from these treatments. The test result also mentions that the said fabric is coated only on one side. On plain reading of the same, we can assume that the said fabric is completely covered or completely coated on one side with plastic polymer and the other side is uncoated. Thus, even when one side of the fabric is completely coated with plastic polymers, it cannot be said to be partially coated or partially covered with plastic polymers. To clarify the issue, we will be required to refer to the meaning of 'partially' as appearing in the dictionaries. The meaning of 'partially' as per various dictionaries is mentioned below: (i) As per Vocabulary.com, meaning of 'partially' is - in part, partly, in some degree. (ii) As per Thesaurus.com, meaning of 'partially' is - partly, somewhat, fractionally, in some measure, On going through the aforementioned meanings of 'partially' appearing in various dictionaries, it can be derived that it stands for 'a small part' of the whole OR 'a small fraction' of the whole OR 'a small measure' of the whole. In the present case, the fabric of....

....ore than 85% cotton. Also, on going through the various headings covered under Chapter 52 and relying on the theory of elimination, we find that the product of the appellant would not fall under Heading 5201 to 5207 as they do not cover cotton fabric but cover either cotton, cotton waste, cotton sewing thread or cotton yarn. The said product would also not fall under Heading 5210 or 5211 (which covers Woven fabrics of cotton containing less than 85% by weight of cotton). Therefore, the only headings under which the product of the appellant are likely to be covered in Chapter 52 are Headings 5208 and 5209 (which covers Woven fabrics of cotton containing more than 85% by weight of cotton) and Heading 5212 (which covers other woven fabrics of cotton). 13.1 Headings 5208, 5209 and 5212 of Chapter 52 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975(51 of 1975) read as under: 5208 WOVEN FABRICS OF COTTON, CONTAINING 85% OR MORE BY WEIGHT OF COTTON, WEIGHING NOT MORE THAN 200 G/M2 - Unbleached : 5208 11 -- Plain weave, weighing not more than 100 g/m2 : 5208 12 -- Plain weave, weighing more than 100 g/m2: 5208 13 -- 3-thread or 4-thread twill, including cross twill : 5208 19 -- Oth....

Classification of such fabrics under Chapter Heading 59.03 may thus be considered as an exception to Chapter Note 2(a) (4) of Chapter 59 according to which fabrics partially coated o....

They have also based their decision on the basis of the retest reports of the fabrics of the appellant which clearly indicate that the samples of the impugned fabric have characteristics which would fall within the exclusion (i) to (v) of Chapter Note 2(a) to CETH 59.03 and also the requirement of 'impervious' for the purpose of Board's telex Circular 30.9.88 and Circular No.5/89 will not be satisfied. 16.

Madura Coats pvt. ltd. on the following main grounds i.e. (i) Chapter Note 2(c) introduced in Chapter 59 w.e.f. 01.03.1989, by virtue of which fusible interlining fabrics came to be classified under Heading 5903 has been omitted w.e.f. 16.03.1995 (ii) Circular No. 433/66/98-CX.6 dated 27.11.1998 which expressed that the omission of the note 2(c) was neither intended to nor resulted in changing the classification of fusible interlining cloth under Heading 5903 was quashed by the High Court of Madras.

The fact that CBEC appealed against the Single Bench judgment in 2005 also indicates that it continues defending Circular No. 433/66/98-CX-6 dated 27/11/1998 and has not made any further course correction. Circular No. 433/66/98-CX-6 dated 27/11/1998, therefore, reflects CBEC's view on the classification of fusible interlining cloth as on date.' 16.1 In view of the above, we find that CBEC Circular No. 433/66/98-CX-6 dated 27/11/1998 is relevant even today and has got persuasive value as on date. Further, Chapter Note 2(a)(4) to Chapter 59 says that fabrics partially coated or partially covered with plastics and bearing designs resulting from these treatments are excluded from Heading 5903 and are usually covered in Chapter 50 to 55, 58 or 60, depending on the materials used. At the same time, according to the Explanatory notes to the HSN of Heading 5903 (detailed in para 11.1 above), textile fabrics which are spattered by spraying with visible particles of thermoplastic material and are capable of providing a bond to other fabrics or materials on the application of heat and pressure are classifiable under heading 5903.

In view of the above, we find that the product 'fusible interlining fabric of cotton' of the appellant would undoubtedly be classifiable under Heading 5903 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975 only. 17. We also find that the appellant has relied upon the decision of the order of the Authority of Advance Ruling of Uttarakhand in the case of M/s. Goodswear Fashion pvt.ltd.

Further, the view and stand of CBEC in respect of Circular No.433/66/98-CX.6 dated 27.11.1998 has been clearly discussed and clarified in detail in the orders of Authority of Advance Ruling, West Bengal as well as that of the Appellate Authority of Advance Ruling, West Bengal in respect of Sadguru Paridhan pvt.ltd.
