The ld.Counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant, submits that they have purchased the inputs on the strength of the invoices containing all the particulars and they are availing the credit of duty on the basis of valid duty paying documents. She submits that the only ground on which the credit is denied is that the invoices bear handwritten serial numbers and the credit has also been taken on the basis of duplicate\/photo copies of invoices. In this regard, the ld.Counsel submits that the serial number on the invoices can be hand-written and moreover, even the invoices can be hand-written and the printed invoices is not a mandatory requirement under the Statute. The copies of the invoices are filed in 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=375395\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>supra).

I find that both the orders-in-original as well as the impugned order do not identify any statutory provision which mandates the pre-printing of the serial number. Para 3.2 of the Central Excise Manual relied in the impugned order reads as follows :<br \/>\n&#8220;3.2 The serial number can be given at the time of printing or by using franking machine. But when the invoice book is authenticated in the manner specified in sub-rule (5) of the Rule 11, each foil of the invoice book should contain serial number before being brought into use. Hand written serial number shall not be accepted.&#8221;<br \/>\n4.1 The said Central Excise Manual and the pa<\/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=375395\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>M\/s EMT Megatherm Pvt.
