Judgment Jawahar Lal Gupta, J. 1. The Revenue has filed this petition under Section 35H(1) of the Central Excise Act, 1944. It stated that the following question arises for the opinion of this Court: Whether gate passes issued prior to 1.4.94 but endorsed after that date would fall under the coverage of Entry No. 10 in the table to the Notification No. 16/94-CE (NT) dated 30.3.94 and would consequently become eligible document for taking credit under the Modvat scheme? 2. Mr. Rajesh Gumber, learned Counsel for the petitioner, very fairly states that the matter is concluded against the Revenue by the judgment of the Gujarat High Court in Commissioner of Central Excise, Ahmedabad-I v.
