Liquid Paraffin I.P. Classification: Bulk Under 2710.99, Packaged Under 30.03, Per Central Excise Tariff Act 1985.

The circular addresses the classification of Liquid Paraffin I.P. under the Central Excise Tariff Act, 1985. It clarifies that Liquid Paraffin I.P. in bulk form should be classified under Chapter 27, sub-heading 2710.99, as it is not a well-defined compound. However, when packaged in measured doses or for retail sale or hospital use, it should be classified under Chapter 30, Heading No. 30.03. The Board concurs with this view, and trade interests are advised accordingly. Pending assessments should be finalized based on these guidelines.
