Under the order impugned the Tribunal has stayed 80% of the demand subject matter of challenge before the first appellate authority. The Assessee is not satisfied with the interim stay so granted. According to the Assessee he is entitled to stay of the entire disputed amount.

(2.) ON behalf of the Assessee it is contended before this Court that the goods subject matter of adjudication before the first appellate authority were mosquito coils.

(3.) DIVISION Bench of this Court in the case of I.T.C. v. Commissioner (Appeals) : 2005 (184) ELT 347 has held that if the Assessee has strong prima facie case covered by an earlier judgment of the Tribunal or of the High Court/Apex Court then the issue of financial difficulties is of not much relevance.
