the reply of the query depends whether thd dta sale is under para 6.8(a) or 6.8(h)of FTP 2009-2014. considering that u are selling goods under para 6.8(a), the bcd is levied at the rate of 50% other duties appers to be correct. However the department is insisting the payment of cess third time also on total duty as above computed. the matter is arguable and in my opinion the third time cess is not leviable.
