In present facts of the case, the Hon’ble Delhi High Court observed that Section 35FF of the Excise Act indicates that interest would commence from the date of the order of the Appellate Authority as distinct from the making of an application which is prescribed to be the starting point insofar as Section 11BB of the Act is concerned.
