The Supreme Court allowed the revenue's appeal and set aside the tribunal's order, holding that Kapri International was liable to pay central excise duty on finished products (bed-sheets, pillow covers, napkins) manufactured from cotton fabric, even though the raw material had already suffered duty. The Court ruled that when manufacturing creates a new commodity with distinct market identity, it is dutiable under the Tariff Act regardless of prior duty on raw materials.
