The Central Board of Excise and Customs, vide its notification No.10\/2004 &#8211; CE (NT) dated 2.6.2004, amended the above said notification by inserting an explanation to provide that the export of goods can be effected under Rule 19 of the Central Excise Rules only. The Central Board of Excise and customs, vide its circular no.792\/25\/2004-CX dated 2.6.2004 also clarified that the explanation inserted in Rule 19 will be effective from 26.6.2001. In above situation, a show cause notice was issued by the Jurisdictional Assistant Commissioner to disallow the rebate claims to the petitioner on the ground that they had exported the goods under Rule 18.

The petitioner&#39;s appeals before the Commissioner (Appeals) were also rejected.<br \/>\nBeing aggrieved, the petitioner filed an appeal before CESTAT on 28.10.2005 against the OIA No.464-465 (HSK) CE\/JPR-II\/2005 dated 12.8.2005. Finally the CESTAT, vide its final order No.A56607-566087\/2013-EX(DB) dated 24.5.2013 dismissed the petitioner&#39;s appeal as not maitnianble on the ground that they did not have jurisdiction over their appeals as these relate to rebate of Central Excise Duty. After dismissal of their appeal by CESTAT, petitioner has filed the revision petition before the revisonal authority on 19.8.2013 on the ground that they had cleared goods from factory prior to amendment in notification No.43\/2001-CE (NT) w.e.f. 2.6.2004 and, therefore, the date of clearance of goods from factory should be considered as date of export and the rebate of duty should b paid to them.

The learned revisional authority observed that it was not bonafide mistake and sufficient cause which prevented the petitioners from filing revision application in time as it was their conscious decision to file an appeal, which is not on account of any ignorance of law or lack of resources. Further, it is held that petitioner is major bsiness entity, backed by a storng managerial and legal team, and the above facts fully demonstrate that they always fought their legal battle at all plate forms. When CBEC had issued its earlier cirtuclar dated 2.6.2004 clarifying that explanation in notification No.43\/2001-CE (NT) will be effective from retrospective effect, the petitioner immediately approached Rajasthan High Court and when their rebate claims were rejected by lower authority and the appellate authority they not only filed the <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/caselaws?id=360492\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>ent of India involving the dispute regarding rebate of duty in similar fashion, therefore, it is not a case to condone the delay.<br \/>\nLearned counsel for the petitioner invited our attention towards the judgment rendered by the Delhi High Court in M\/s Sun Pharmaceutical Industries ltd Vs.
