CESTAT remanded an excise-related order involving Rs. 1.18 crore, due to it being issued by an officer without proper authority. The tribunal pointed out that the certificate issued by the improper officer could not be legally sustained, thereby necessitating a fresh examination of the case. This ruling stresses the importance of adherence to procedural norms within tax and excise law.
