rule 6, sub-rule (3) clause (ii), Central Excise

[mukesh pareek]

Dear Experts,

A Manufacturer of dutiable and exempted products maintaining separate accounts for input material and taking Cenvat credit accordingly but he can''t maintain separate account for input service.

Manufacturer want's to follow rule 6, sub-rule (3) clause (ii) so can anyone explain this simply ( Do not copy as mention in manual because i can't understand)

Someone said me that if your last year ration is 85 : 15 ( 85 exempted sale and 15 Dutiable sale ) then you can take partial 15% credit of total input service for whole next year.

please advise

Sh.Mukesh Pareek Ji,

You have two queries. Query-wise reply is as under:-

1. No doubt formula is not simple. You will have to resort to C.A.'s certificate for error proof reversal under Rule 6(3) (ii). Such certificate is subject to verification by the department.

2. Totally wrong.

Sir

Q.1: Rule 6 (30 (ii) of Cenvat Credit rules, 2004 mandates "to pay an amount as determined under sub-rule (3A). Whether you like the provisions of rule 3A or not you have to follow it.

Q.2: Reversing the credit od input services used in exempted goodsiservices in the ratio indicated by you have no legal sanction. Even if you do so department will not accept it on the ground that it is beyond the scope of Cenvat Credit rules, 2004 and you have to undergo unnecessary and fruitless litigation.

Agreed with Sh.Rajagopalan Ranganathan, Sir.
