Effective rate of duty of 1% on specified goods, Central Excise

[arun aggarwal]

Sir

I have a unit in Delhi as a jewellery manufacturer, I am taking cenvat of 9.35% on the gold bar and paying 12.5% excise duty on the jewellery tarriff 7113 . In the same unit can I purchase Gold bar and without taking cenvat charge 1% excise duty on jewellery . means I pay the duty on purchase to purchase basis 1% where no cenvat taken and 12.5% where I have taken the cenvat and make seperate accounts. Or I have to stick to one option of taking cenvat or no cenvat in the whole year.

It appears notf. No. 12/12 CE has put any precondition of only one option of rate of duty during clearances.

No hybrid procedure is allowed. Agreed with Sh. Himanshu Sha, an expert.

Sir,

Tnx for your reply.

Further I belive that it has nothing to do with [Notification No. 44/97-C.E. (N.T.), dated 30-8-1997]

Tnx for your reply in advance

Notification No.44/97-CE(NT) pertains to compounded levy scheme and has nothing to do with Notification No.12/12-CE. I fail to understand why this question/point arose. However, any doubt, you may ask further.
