Refund of excise duty, Customs - Exim - SEZ

[V.K. Verma]

MEGA POWER PROJECTS (SAY NUCLEAR POWER PROJECTS)enjoy certain concessions. As per Import Export policy (1997-202)domestic contractors supplying goods for these projects under the process of comptetive bidding shall be eligible for benefits of 'Deemed Export' which include refund of terminal excise duty vide notifications no.42(RE-2001)1997-2002 dt.21.12.2001 and 57 (RE-01/1997-2002 dt.21.12.2001)issued by the DGFT. My query is whether a contractor who has supplied goods for construction of one such project at Rajasthan in 2004-05-06, can claim refund of excise duty charged to him by his suppliers on these goods in their bills. If yes, the procedure thereof.

As per the provisions of foreign trade policy in case of deemed export, certain export benefits are available like exemption from terminal excise duty etc. For this purpose all the circumstances and facts are to be analyzed in detail.
