Item described in the query is a specified goods as per Standards of Weight and Measurement Act as well as notified goods under section 4A of the central excise act. From the query also it appears you would sale the material in the packing condition to the buyers. Therefore, I think you have no option but to pay CVD on the basis of MRP at the time of import.
