Captive Consumption means the consumption of goods manufactured within the same factory or transfer of goods to a sister unit or another factory of the same company/firm for further use in the manufacture of goods.

The goods internally consumed to manufacture the final product is termed as Intermediate Goods.

Please note :

·         If the Intermediate Goods are used to manufacture Final Product which is duty chargeable, then on the removal of the intermediate goods for internal use Duty is not payable to the Government.

·         If the Intermediate Goods are used to manufacture Final Product which is Exempted from Duty, then on the removal of the intermediate goods for internal use Duty is payable to the Government.

May please refer the NTF. NO. 67/1995-CE, Dated 16/03/1995

Whether any premission to be required from Excise Authority to transfer Intermediate Goods to sister concern and what type of record to be maintained

[Mangesh Lokre]

Obviously you have to take the permission from the Jurisdictional AC/DC.

In your case, you are suppose to clear the semi finished goods from one plant to another sister plant for JOBWORK and you are going to clear from Sister plants' premises.

You have to maintain the Job Work Register and seek the permission from Excise stating the Process Flow Chart.

This we think is not the captive consumption but the Jobwork. In Captive consumption, you are utilising the Semifinished product within the same process and same premises.

Hope the issue is clear.

Intermediate product arises in same factory  and consumed in manufacture of final product. Final product is exempted from duty by a notification. But final product is exported directly under drawback or Advance authorisation. Still duty on captive consumption  will be levied?/
