With regard to the issue of adding the turnover of the SEZ units to that of the total turnover of the respondent the Commissioner (Appeals) has discussed in para 5.2 we find that the formula applied by the Commissioner (Appeals) excluding the turnover of the SEZ units is correct and proper.<br \/>\n9.
