Hon'ble Shri Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan, Chief Justice Hon'ble Shri Sharad Kumar Gupta, Judge Judgment on Board Per Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan, Chief Justice 13/11/2017

1. We have read the impugned order of the Customs, Excise & Service Tax Appellate Tribunal; for short 'the CESTAT'. Heard the learned counsel for the Revenue.

2. CESTAT has issued the impugned order making reference to the decision in SKS Ispat & Power Ltd. v. CCE, Raipur; 2016 TIOL-2769-CESTAT-DEL. The Tribunal was justified in making an order of remand to decide the issue de novo as regard the period after 07.07.2009. We do not find any legal infirmity or jurisdictional error in it. The appeal under Section 35-G of the Central Excise Act, 1944 does not therefore merit acceptance since no substantial question of law arises for decision to be answered in favour of the Revenue. The appeal therefore fails.

3. In the result, this appeal is dismissed.
