2015 (4) TMI 816 - SC - Central ExciseValuation of goods - Captive consumption - Misdeclaration of value of goods - Non inclusion of value of administrative overheads, bonus, gratuity, interest, conversion charges and depreciation charges in the assessable value of the yarn - Held that:- While issuing the clarification as to how the Gross Profit, i.e., profit before depreciation and taxation or 'Profit before tax' or any other profit has to be arrived at, it is also clarified that for the purposes of calculation of value of goods captively consumed under Rule 6(b)(ii) of Central Excise (Valuation) Rules, 1975, certain steps are to be taken. - The clarification, pertains to calculation of value of goods captively consumed under Rule 6(b)(ii). It is this Rule which is undoubtedly applicable in the present case. Thus, for the first time, only in October, 1996, it was clarified that the cost of material, labour cost and overheads including administrative cost, advertising expenses, depreciation, interest, etc., would be included in the cost of production. The period with which we are concerned is prior to October, 1996, i.e., April, 1994 to September, 1996. It, therefore, cannot be said that the respondents-companies made intentional misdeclaration with the purpose to avoid payment of correct excise duty. We thus, find that the CESTAT was right in holding that extended period of limitation would not be applicable in the present case. - Decided against Revenue.
