The expression "all goods" used in the two Chapter Notes is significant
and so is the expression "all items" used in the text of Heading 9801. The
phrase "all items of machinery including ....required for the initial setting
up a unit, or the substantial expansion of an existing unit, of a specified....
power project" means, to our mind, that the whole lot of items required for
the setting up of a power plant or for the substantial expansion of an
existing power plant will constitute a bundle or cluster to be covered by
Heading 9801. The Chapter Notes appear to support this legal fiction embodied
in Heading 9801. If some of the items/goods are removed from this bundle, the
residue will not go to constitute a new power plant or an expanded power
plant. Therefore, it is imperative that, for classification under Heading
9801, the bundle of items/goods must be complete so as to be considered to be
"required for the setting up of a power plant.

Once the Department depending upon the definition
and specifications comes to the conclusion that the product is bituminous
coal and it fulfils the definition given therein and in view of the settled
law that when there is a specific definition available in the tariff, trade
parlance is not relevant. What is required the Department is to show that
what is imported fulfils the definition as given in the tariff and if in
trade parlance the product has another name, that could not make a difference
to the classification issue.
