Dear Friend,

First of all, one can import material under the concesional rate of duty to use such material in the intended purpose. You have not stated what is the intended purpose for which such materials were imported. Moeover, predominantly, goods will be imported/ procured locally under concessional rate of duties for use in the goods intended for export.

Unless you clarify about the intended purpose, it is difficult to give the exact reply

Best Regards

Sir,

manufacturer imported the parts of mobile battery under consessional rate of duty and intended to manufacturing the mobile battery in his factory (not availing the CENVAT facility on inputs, inputs services or Capital goods). but the manufacturer selling the said mobile battery in open market not to mobile manufacturer. what will be rate of duty. either 2%, 12.5% or NIL
