Case History
Case Summary: C.A. No. 003426/2000 Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the Collector of Central Excise's appeal with no order as to costs, upholding CEGAT's decision that the extended period of limitation under Section 11A of the Central Excise Act, 1944 was unavailable. Reasoning: The Court agreed with CEGAT's finding that the Department had no valid grounds to claim extended limitation. Since charges for secondary packing were disclosed to the Department as early as 1994, yet a show cause notice was only issued on 21st September 1999 (claiming duty from March 1994-June 1995), the Court found no reason why timely action wasn't taken. The Court rejected the Department's suppression argument. Next Steps: None indicated; case concluded. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
