Dear Pushparaj,

I understand your query and if the raw material presently being procured by you on payment of duty can now be procured without payment of Excise duty if the said item is specified in list 3 or 4 of Customs Notification No. 12/2012-Cus since these lists were extended to Central Excise Notification 12/2012-CE under Sl. No. 108 A .

You can certainly ask your supplier to supply the goods availing the exemption under Sl. No. 108A of Notification NO. 12/2012-CE.

Dear Sir,

I informed my supplier for availing exemption under Sl. No. 108A of Notification NO. 12/2012-CE but supplier is asking the annexure-45 against that notification .

Kindly conform annexure-45 is related to export of goods or we can use it for local sales .

we are not the exporter , we are manufacturing other brands only .

Regards,

Also see Annexure-80. If input is obtained duty-free under any concessional/exemption notification, either the final product should be exported or duty should be paid on final product for home consumption as per prevailing rate of Central Excise duty. Procuring inputs duty-free is always conditional. Dutiable inputs cannot be brought free of duty to be used in the manufacture of exempted final product.

So co-relate Notification No.12/12-Customs with 12/12-CE very carefully. If picture is vague and subject to so many 'ifs' and 'buts', why to invite trouble ?

[KASTURI SETHI]

Under Old Chapter X procedure inputs were being brought free of duty for Industrial purpose. Now new rules have been inserted. Pl. go through the following:-

(9) Duty-free raw materials for manufacture of goods. - Old Chapter X Procedure – New Rules notified.- The existing Central Excise (Removal of Goods at Concessional Rate of Duty for Manufacture of Excisable and Other Goods) Rules, 2001 have been substituted with the Central Excise (Removal of Goods at Concessional Rate of Duty for Manufacture of Excisable and Other Goods) Rules, 2016, so as to simplify the rules, including allowing duty exemptions to importer/manufacturer based on self-declaration instead of obtaining permissions from the Central Excise authorities.

SH.PUSHPA RAJ JI,

In continuation of my replies dated 6.5.16, I further clarify that Annexure-45 is for both purposes i.e. Export or Local Sales/clearance for home consumption. In case of export of final product no duty is required to be paid but for domestic clearance duty must be paid on final product as inputs are being bought free of duty.

However, Annexure-80 & 81 inserted vide Notification No.20/16-CE(NT) dated 1.3.16 should be preferred.

Just for information :- Rule 3 of the Central Excise (Removal of Goods at Concessional Rate of Duty for Manufacture of Excisable goods) Rules, 2001 is new version of Old Chapter Procedure under erstwhile 192 of CE Rules, 1944.

Respected Mr.KASTURI SETHI ,

Shall i know which bond with surety i have to executive for Form I (Removal of Goods at Concessional Rate of Duty for Manufacture of Excisable and Other Goods) Rules, 2016)

Thanks in advance ,

Respected P.Pushpa Raj,

Now your firm is on right track. It is always better to choose safe track, especially, when safe procedure is available. Why to opt for a path which is full of uncertainties or conditions.

As per Rule 4(5) of CENTRAL EXCISE (REMOVAL OF GOODS AT CONCESSIONAL RATE OF DUTY FOR MANUFACTURE OF EXCISABLE AND OTHER GOODS) RULES, 2016 [Notification No. 20/2016-C.E. (N.T.), dated 1-3-2016 as amended] you are to execute a General Bond with Surety ANNEXURE-7 FORM B-2 and NOT WITH SECURITY.

EARLIER CENTRAL EXCISE (REMOVAL OF GOODS AT CONCESSIONAL RATE OF DUTY FOR MANUFACTURE OF EXCISABLE AND OTHER GOODS) RULES, 2001 have been substituted with new Rules, 2016 vide Notification No. mentioned above.
