With a view to provide clarity and predictability and to facilitate investments, Board has decided to issue a revised circular along with the Manufacture and Other Operations in Warehouse Regulations 2019 (no. 2 regulations), issued vide Notification No.69/2019-Customs (N.T.) dated 01.10.2019 , hereinafter referred to as, MOOWR, 2019 . Circular 38/2018-Customs stands consolidated and integrated into this Circular. 2. MOOWR, 2019 and this circular covers the procedures and documentation for units operating under Section 65 in a comprehensive manner, including application for seeking permission under section 65 , provision of execution of the bond by the licensee, receipt, storage and removal of goods, maintenance of accounts, conduct of audit etc. 3. Consequently, the Warehouse (Custody and Handling of Goods) Regulations, 2016 , and the Warehoused Goods (Removal) Regulations, 2016 , which were hitherto governing the procedure for custody and handling of goods in and removal of goods from public and private bonded warehouses, have been amended vide Notification 70 .....

In such a case, no duty is required to be paid in respect of the imported goods contained in the resultant product as per the provisions of section 69 of the Act. 8. To the extent that the resultant product (whether emerging out of manufacturing or other operations in the warehouse) is cleared for domestic consumption, such a transaction squarely falls within the ambit of supply under Section 7 of the Central Goods and Service Tax Act,2017 (hereinafter referred to as the, CGST Act ). It would therefore be taxable in terms of section 9 of the CGST Act, 2017 or section 5 of the Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 depending upon the supply being intra-state or inter-state. The resultant product will thus be supplied from the warehouse to the domestic tariff area under the cover of GST invoice on the payment of appropriate GST and compensation cess, if any. As regards import duties payable on the imported goods contained in so much of the resultant products are concerned, same shall be paid at the time of supply of the resultant produ .....

Regulation 8 of MOOWR 2019 requires the licensee to provide such facilities, equipment and personnel as are sufficient to control access to the warehouse, provide secure storage of the goods and ensure compliance to the regulations. Thus, the regulations do not mandate that a structure fully closed from all sides is a pre-requisite for grant of license. What is important is that the site or building is suitable for secure storage of goods and discharge of compliances, such as proper boundary walls, gate(s) with access control and personnel to safeguard the premises. Moreover, depending on the nature of goods used, the operations conducted and the industry, some units may operate without fully closed structures. Therefore, Principal Commissioner/Commissioners should take into consideration the facilities, equipment and personnel put in place for secure storage of goods, while considering grant of license. 14.
