2022 (11) TMI 794 - HC - Central ExciseCENVAT Credit - benefit under Section 73 of the Finance Act 2010 without paying 24% interest per annum from the due date as contemplated under Section 73(2) of the Finance Act, 2010 - proviso to Rule 6(7) of the CENVAT Credit Rules 2004 - whether the subsequent amendment that was brought into force in the year 2010 and was given retrospective effect, can be put against the assessee? - HELD THAT:- There is no dispute with regard to the fact that the respondent had reversed the credit with interest by availing of the option provided under Section 73(2) of the Finance Act, 2010, on 01.08.2007, even before the issuance of show cause notice. Reliance can be placed in the case of COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE, CHENNAI-II VERSUS ICMC CORPORATION LTD. [2014 (1) TMI 1646 - MADRAS HIGH COURT] where it was held that Considering the fact that the assessee had reversed the credit even prior to the amendment and the order of the Tribunal is in fact no different from what is contemplated under the Finance Act, 2010, we do not find anything survives further for this Court to consider the merits of the case pleaded by the Revenue. There is no manifest error in the final order passed by the Tribunal and the substantial question of law raised in this appeal is answered accordingly.
