2021 (3) TMI 243 - HC - Central ExciseRefund of Excise duty paid - Area Based Exemption - benefits under the Northeast Industrial Policy - allegation is that without giving a due consideration to the claim for special rate made by the petitioners, the respondents now intend to attach the bank accounts of the petitioner on the premises that the refund of excise duty would be as per the rates provided in the Notification dated 27.03.2008 - HELD THAT:- As the Notification dated 27.03.2008 provides for a legal right to the assessee to claim for a special rate to be fixed in the event of there being any add-ons to the goods manufactured, we are of the view that without an appropriate decision being taken on such claim for special rate, it would be inappropriate for the department to proceed against the petitioners as per the rates provided in the Notification dated 27.03.2008. This petition stands disposed of by directing the Principal Commissioner of GST Guwahati to consider the aforesaid application of the petitioner dated 28.09.2020 claiming for a special rate to be fixed on the basis of the add-ons made to the goods manufactured. After arriving at the special rate, if any as per the order to be passed by the Principal Commissioner, GST further process against the petitioner as per law may be initiated - Petition allowed.
