Not at all. 100% credit is allowed only in cases where capital goods is cleared in the same financial year.

It seems tha answer is given with reference to with reference to Rule 3 (5) of CCR but the query is for Rule 4(2) (b) ibid.

i agree with mr rakshit verma.it is allowed only in cases where capital goods are to be cleared inthe same financial year. otherwise, it is only 50%.

What Mr Shete has said appears correct. Query appears to be in connection with Rule  4(2)(b) of  CCR  and in case of spares and parts of machinery eligible for cenvat credit as capital goods, full cenvat credit can be taken in the same financial year.

I am still of the view that the exeption is that in case of consumables like spare parts , components, moulds and dies,refractories, refractory materials etc., the balance credit can be taken in subsequent year ,even if these are not in possession. The obvious reason is that these may not be available next year or subsequent years at all and even if these are available, it willbe practically impossible to locate them and prove their possession.
