Till the year 2000, such re-<\/p>\n<p>processing of de-graded lubricating oil was held not to involve a<\/p>\n<p>manufacturing process by various decisions of the courts and<\/p>\n<p>therefore, no excise duty was payable on the re-processed lubricating<\/p>\n<p>oil manufactured by the petitioner. But by Finance Act 2000, Schedule<\/p>\n<p>to the Central Excise Tariff Act, 1985 was amened by introducing a<\/p>\n<p>Chapter Note to Chapter 27 thus:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>             &#8216;9.   In relation to lubricating oils and lubricating preparations of<br \/>\n     heading No.27.10. Labelling or relabeling of containers and repacking<br \/>\n     from bulk packs to retail packs or the adoption of any other treatment to<br \/>\n     render the product marketable to the consumer shall amount to<br \/>\n     &#8220;manufacture.&#8221;&#8216;<\/p>\n<p>In the Central Excise Act the word &#8220;manufacture&#8221; is defined thus:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>      &#8216;(f)    &#8220;manufacture&#8221; includes any process,-<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        (i) incidental or ancillary to the completion of a manufactured<br \/>\n             product; and<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        (ii) which is specified in relation to any goods in the Section or Chapter<br \/>\n             notes of the First Schedule to the Central Excise Tariff Act, 1895 (5<br \/>\n             of 1986) as amounting to manufacture,<\/p>\n<p>             and the word &#8220;manufacture&#8221; shall be construed accordingly and<br \/>\n      shall include not only a person who employs hired labour in the<br \/>\n      production or manufacture of excisable goods, but also any person who<br \/>\n      engages in their production or manufacture on his own account.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Thereafter, the Central Excise Department started taking the stand<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">o.p.6138\/01                         2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>that in view of the Chapter Note added, the re-processing of de-graded<\/p>\n<p>lubricating oil would also amount to manufacture on the ground that<\/p>\n<p>the process is for making the product marketable and, therefore,<\/p>\n<p>excise duty is payable by the petitioner. Ext.P1 order was passed in<\/p>\n<p>that regard. The petitioner filed appeal before the Commissioner of<\/p>\n<p>Central Excise and Customs (Appeals), which was dismissed by Ext.P2.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Although the petitioner filed appeal before the Customs Excise and<\/p>\n<p>Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT), Bangalore, as Appeal<\/p>\n<p>No.E\/164\/2001, the petitioner chose to file this original petition to<\/p>\n<p>challenge the constitutional validity of the Chapter Note introduced by<\/p>\n<p>the Finance Act, 2000 since that could be done only in a writ petition.<\/p>\n<p>However, the petitioner reserves their right to pursue that question in<\/p>\n<p>a more appropriate case. They would be now satisfied with a direction<\/p>\n<p>to the CESTAT, Bangalore, to dispose of appeal No.E\/164\/01<\/p>\n<p>expeditiously. The learned Standing Counsel appearing for the Central<\/p>\n<p>Excise Department is also keen to get the appeal disposed of since,<\/p>\n<p>according to him, several crores of rupees are being held up because<\/p>\n<p>of the pendency of similar appeals before various authorities and it<\/p>\n<p>would be in the interest of the Department also to have the appeal<\/p>\n<p>disposed of either way finally.
