As the company manufactures both exempted and excisable products, then Cenvat Credit Rule 6 of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004.

As per the said rule, you have to maintain the separate register for the inputs/inputs services for both excisable and non excisable products and accordingly cenvat credit will be allowed.

Otherwise he has to choose one of 2 options as undermentioned:

i) Manufacturer has to pay duty equivalent to 5% of the value of the exempted goods.

ii) Pay the equivalent amount of Cenvat Credit availed on the exempted goods.

Security charges which are common in nature is eligible for full cenvat credit as per Rule 6(5) of Cenvat credit Rules.

Excise duty paid on raw materials used in relation to excisable goods is eligibel for full credit if separate records available. If not, proporate credit as per formula or payment of 5% on value of exempted goods is required to be made.
