(RSWML) was the real<br \/>\nmanufacturer who carried out textile processing from its process house at<br \/>\nMordi and if so whether the Department was right in invoking best judgment<br \/>\nassessment in terms of Rule 7 of Central Excise (Valuation) Rules, 1975<br \/>\n(1975 Rules for short).\n<\/p>\n<p>RSWML are the manufacturers of yarn and fabric.  It had set up a<br \/>\nprocess house at Mordi in 1994-95.  The process house was set up for<br \/>\nprocessing their fabric.  The woven fabrics manufactured at their weaving<br \/>\nunit was processed on job work basis by Mordi processing house.  This was<br \/>\nwith effect from 29th March, 1995.  On 16th June, 1995 the said process<br \/>\nhouse was let out by RSWML to Bhilwara Spinners Limited (BSL).  Later<br \/>\non the lease agreement between RSWML and BSL stood terminated and the<br \/>\nprocess house was leased out to Purvi Fabrics &amp; Textures (PFTL).\n<\/p>\n<p>The above arrangement was doubted by the Department.  Therefore,<br \/>\nthe Department issued show cause notice dated 22nd September, 1998<br \/>\nclaiming differential duty from RSWML for the period from 16th June, 1995<br \/>\nto February 20, 1996 principally on the ground that the real manufacturer<br \/>\nwas RSWML and that the above arrangement of lease was a sham as it was<br \/>\narrived at to change the basis of valuation\/assessment of fabrics processed<br \/>\nfrom &#8220;comparable goods basis\/method&#8221; to &#8220;cost method&#8221;.\n<\/p>\n<p>On factual analysis the tribunal came to the conclusion that the lease<br \/>\nagreement referred to above was genuine and, therefore, RSWML was right<br \/>\nin invoking the cost method under Rule 6(b)(ii) of the said 1975 Rules.<br \/>\nAccording to the tribunal the present case stood covered by the judgment of<br \/>\nthis Court in the case of Ujagar Prints &amp; Ors. Vs. Union of India &amp; Ors.<br \/>\n[(1989) 3 SCC 531].\n<\/p>\n<p>At the outset we may point out that the question of valuation was not<br \/>\nexamined by the tribunal.  Even if we are to proceed on the assumption that<br \/>\nthe tribunal had erred, we are still not inclined to interfere in this matter for<br \/>\nthe reasons given hereinafter mentioned.  We are, therefore, proceeding on<br \/>\nthe basis that RSWML is the real manufacturer and that the lease was a<br \/>\nsham.\n<\/p>\n<p>The question which would still arise, whether even if one is required<br \/>\nto proceed on the basis of &#8220;comparable goods method&#8221; is there a case of<br \/>\nundervaluation.  Is the matter revenue neutral?  In this connection, we may<br \/>\npoint out that the &#8220;comparable goods method&#8221; is contemplated by Rule<br \/>\n6(b)(i) whereas the &#8220;cost method&#8221; is contemplated by Rule 6(b)(ii).  In this<br \/>\ncase even if we are to proceed under Rule 6(b)(i), as contended by the<br \/>\nDepartment, we find from the facts that RSWML used to receive unsorted<br \/>\nfabrics from its process house, RSWML thereafter used to carry out the<br \/>\nwork of sorting and thereafter the goods were cleared through their Depot.<br \/>\nUnder Section 4(1)(a) of the Central Excise Act as it stood at the relevant<br \/>\ntime, in case of valuation falling under Section 4(1), the normal price<br \/>\nconstituted the basis of assessable value. We quote hereinbelow Section<br \/>\n4(1)(a):\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;4. Valuation of excisable goods for purposes of<br \/>\ncharging of duty of excise.(1) Where under this Act,<br \/>\nthe duty of excise is chargeable on any excisable goods<br \/>\nwith reference to value, such value, shall, subject to the<br \/>\nother provisions of this section, be deemed to be <\/p>\n<p>(a)\tthe normal price thereof, that is to say, the price at<br \/>\nwhich such goods are ordinarily sold by the assessee<br \/>\nto a buyer in the course of wholesale trade for<br \/>\ndelivery at the time and place of removal, where the<br \/>\nbuyer is not a related person and the price is the sole<br \/>\nconsideration for the sale :&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>In the present case we are proceeding on the basis that ex-factory<br \/>\nprice was ascertainable.  Even then, the underlined words indicate that if sale<br \/>\nprice of sorted goods at the Depot of RSWML is to be taken into account the<br \/>\nvalue of such goods (sorted goods) cleared at the depot would be different<br \/>\nfrom the value of unsorted goods (semi-finished goods) cleared at the<br \/>\nfactory gate.  According to the Department ex-factory price was required to<br \/>\nbe taken into account.  However, the Department has lost sight of the fact<br \/>\nthat there was dissimilarity of the goods cleared at the factory gate, being<br \/>\nunsorted goods, on the one hand and the goods cleared at the Sales Depot of<br \/>\nRSWML being sorted goods.  If this difference is kept in mind then there<br \/>\nwas what is called as &#8220;value addition&#8221;.  That value addition has not been<br \/>\ntaken into account by the Department.  For that value addition abatement<br \/>\nwas claimed by the assessee.  There is no discussion on this aspect of the<br \/>\ncase in the order passed by the Commissioner.  In that connection we quote<br \/>\nhereinbelow a complete table submitted by RSWML before the<br \/>\nCommissioner which reads as under:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even if the value is determined on comparable goods basis,<br \/>\nthere would be no differential duty liability at all.  This is evident<br \/>\nfrom the following:\n<\/p>\n<p>Qty (mtrs)<br \/>\nValue (Rs.)<br \/>\nAssessable value as per 52A Invoices<br \/>\nfrom process house for the period<br \/>\n16.6.95 to 20.2.98<br \/>\n17004521<br \/>\n105,53,29,128<br \/>\nAdd: excise duty paid<\/p>\n<p>16,20,17,071<br \/>\nTotal cum duty value<br \/>\n17004521<br \/>\n121,73,46,199<br \/>\nAdd 40% towards value addition<br \/>\nbetween lump and graded fabric<\/p>\n<p>48,69,38,480<br \/>\nExpected sale price of processed<br \/>\nfabrics &#8211; graded<br \/>\n17004521<br \/>\n170,42,84,679<br \/>\nProportionate actual realization on<br \/>\nsale of graded fabrics as per<br \/>\ncommercial invoices<br \/>\n17004521<br \/>\n167,35,65,236&#8243;\n<\/p>\n<p>\tIf one analysis the above table it is clear that if one has to work out the<br \/>\nassessable value on &#8220;comparable goods method&#8221; under Rule 6(b)(i), there<br \/>\nhas been, according to the assessee, value addition between lump fabric and<br \/>\ngraded fabric.  If that value addition is taken into account then the<br \/>\nproportionate actual realization on sale of graded fabrics would come to<br \/>\nRs.167,35,65,236 crores which is the value which is more than what is<br \/>\ncalculated by the Department.  In other words the assessee claimed 40%<br \/>\nabatement.  The Commissioner has given discounts but not abatement.  The<br \/>\ntwo concepts are different.  The concept of abatement arises on account of<br \/>\nthe condition of the goods cleared at the factory gate which is materially<br \/>\ndifferent from the condition of the goods cleared from the Sales Depot.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tThis matter was adjourned by this Court on 31st October, 2007.<br \/>\nAdequate time was given to the Commissioner to ascertain whether<br \/>\nRSWML was entitled to abatement of 40% on account of value addition.<br \/>\nThis has not been done.  Moreover, as stated above, the question of<br \/>\nabatement was raised before the Commissioner by the assessee.  That<br \/>\nquestion was never decided.  In the circumstances, we see no reason to<br \/>\ninterfere with the impugned judgment of the tribunal.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tBefore concluding, we may state that valuation is not an exact<br \/>\nscience.  Some amount of guess work exists in valuation.  Therefore,<br \/>\ndifferent methods are prescribed by Valuation Rules.  These rules are<br \/>\nprescribed in order to find out the actual realization which realization<br \/>\nconstitutes the basis of assessable value.  At the same time one must keep in<br \/>\nmind that different methods prescribed have to converge to a common<br \/>\nvaluation.  For example, as stated above, Rule 6(b)(i) prescribes<br \/>\n&#8220;comparable goods method&#8221;, Rule 6(b)(ii) prescribes &#8220;cost method&#8221; and<br \/>\nRule 7 which contemplates best judgment assessment states that the<br \/>\nAssessing Officer is free to apply any of the methods prescribed by Rules 1<br \/>\nto 6 of 1975 Rules.  We would like to, therefore, emphasize the aspect of<br \/>\nconvergence.  It is not possible to accept wide variation in the result.  The<br \/>\nDepartment may apply different methods of valuation, but it has to<br \/>\nultimately ascertain by applying rule of convergence the estimated ad<br \/>\nvalorem value which would constitute the basis of assessable value.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tFor aforestated reasons, we see no merit in these civil appeals filed by<br \/>\nthe Department and the same are accordingly dismissed with no order as to<br \/>\ncosts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supreme Court of India Commissioner Of Central Excise, &#8230; vs M\/S.Rajasthan Spg. &amp; Wvg.
