"manufacture" shall mean the use of raw materials and production of goods commercially different from the raw materials used but shall not include mere packing of goods, polishing, cleaning, grading, drying, blending or mixing different varieties of the same goods, sawing, garbling processing one form of goods into another form of the same goods by mixing with chemicals or gas, fumigation or any other process applied for preserving the goods in good condition or for easy transportation. The process of producing desiccated coconut out of coconut (chemical treatment of rubber wood and production of dressed or tanned hides out of raw hides) shall be deemed to be 'manufacture' for the purpose of this notification.
