CORAM : Dr.S.RADHAKRISHNAN &
J.P.DEVADHAR, JJ.
DATED : 22ND FEBRUARY, 2006.
P.C. :-
1. Heard learned counsel for the appellant and
the respondent. By this appeal, the appellant is
seeking to raise the following question of law:-
" Whether the CESTAT was correct in setting
aside the instant case, citing the decision of
Tribunal in a similar issue, in case of
M/s.Dhimant Trading Co. and others vide order
No.-C-II/4433 to 4456/WZB dated 31/12/2002 whereas
the Tribunal vide the above orders remanded the
case to requantify ? "
2. In the present case, the dispute pertains to
denial of credit on account of discrepancy in the
dealers invoices and the goods actually received in the
factory. The invoice refers to coils whereas the goods

received were ‘sheets’. The Tribunal following its
decision in the case of Dhimant Trading Co. as well as
Standard Drum Mfg.Co. and several other cases decided
on 31/12/02 held that as long as the weight of sheets
and weight of coils tally and reasonaly correspond in
time between dispatch and receipt of goods, it must be
held that there is correlation and in the absence of any
allegation that non duty paid coils were received the
credit of duty cannot be denied.
3. It is brought to our notice that the
Commissioner of Central Excise had filed Central Excise
Application No.24 of 2003 against the aforesaid decision
of the Tribunal dated 31/12/02 and the same has been
dismissed on 24/8/2005. In view of our order in Central
Excise Application No.24 of 2003, no substantial
question of law arise in this appeal.
4. Appeal is dismissed in limine with no order as
to costs.
