Central Sales Tax

Dear Friends,

My Company manufactures Malt by germinating barley in germination boxes. Germination boxes are made as cemented structures by using building material. Now, sales tax authorities argues that germination boxes are part of building while my company argues that it's a part of Plant & Machinery because without making germination boxes we cannot germinate barley for making Malt.

We want to make some more germination boxes and wants to buy material by using 'C' form under Central Sales Tax Act.

Please guide me that how should we proove before the sales tax authorities that germination boxes are a part of plant & machinery. Please also quote some case laws on this.
