In the erstwhile Modvat Credit Rules, credit will be sanctioned only based on FIR of the complaint filed with Police in case of loss of original/duplicate. Even after the amendment in Rules and introduction of Cenvat Credit Rules, people are blindly following the practice which is not warranted at all. As per Rule 11 of CE Rules, a manufacturer can issue three copie sof Invoice, ie, Original, Duplicate and Triplicate. If both duplicate is lost , credit can be taken against Original and if original is also lost, the triplicate copy available with aseessee can be taken credit as provided in Rule 9(1) of CCR. The consignor can keep a copy of the triplicate copy duly attested with him
