Here the question is not whether the manufacture availed Cenvat on input used in manufacturing of export goods, but on the one hand the manufacture has availed cenvat on input used on exported goods, then he cleared such goods by paying duty from cenvat which gets back by way of rebate under Rule 18 of CER,2002. - Reply By pradeep khatri - The Reply = No drawback of excise duty on rawmaterial for manufacturers availing CENVAT credit It is essential to note that manufacturers of excisable goods who are availing CENV .....

AT credit facility are eligible to take as CENVAT credit any duty of excise paid on raw material or countervailing duty (CVD) paid on imported raw materail or service tax paid on input services. CENVAT credit is iteself a scheme of instant reimbursement of duties and taxes. Therefore, to the extent credit has been availed by the manufacturer exporter there cannot be any claim of drawback under the drawback scheme. Obviously, there cannot be a dual benefit of the drawback as well as CENVAT credit only on CVD portion as the basic customs duty is not allowed to be centvated. In such cases, the manufacturer-exporter can restrict his claim for drawback only to the basic customs duty which the impted material has suffered. This aspect needs to .....

Mangal - The Reply = Dear Pradeepji, The question in the instant issue is not about availment of cenvat on input used in the manufacture of goods exported. If the goods would have been exported under Bond without payment of duty, the exporter could have claimed DBK for custom portion if he had availed cenvat. Since in this case exports has been made under Rule 18 of CER,2002 under rabate of duty paid on exports and there is prohibition of availment of DBK when the exporter claims rebate under Rule 18, hence the DBK in such case is rule out. - Reply By prakash vankhede - The Reply = Dear sir We need to your expert guidiance regarding Duty drawback under section .....
