Case History
The Supreme Court dismissed the Commissioner of Central Excise's appeal and upheld the CEGAT tribunal's decision that Susma Textile's bleached, sized cotton fabrics should be classified under Heading 52.06 rather than 59.01. The court found that to qualify as "Buckram and similar stiffened textile fabrics" under Heading 59.01, fabrics must have permanent and durable stiffness; since the respondents' fabrics lost stiffness when treated with hot water and lacked interstices-filled structure, they failed this essential requirement and remained properly classified as ordinary sized fabrics under Heading 52.06. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
