Applicability of Excise, Central Excise

[Rahul Bagaria]

I wanted to know if any labelling in the box of the product will attract excise.

Also, if the main box ( carton) is segregated into 2 small box ( carton) and then further labelling done, will excise duty attract?

For excise duty to be applicable, the activity carried out by you should fall under deemed manufacture. You are required to ascertain if the product on which packing activity is carried out is falling under the third Schedule to CETA 1985. Then the question of excisability arise.

Dear Sir,

Generally, the Labelling or repacking of certain products fall under deemed manufacture. If you can able to provide the Product Name and Central Excise Tariff No., we may check the same in the Central Excise Tariff Act.

Thanks & Regards,
