Kindly assist me. - Reply By MUKUND THAKKAR - The Reply = Removal of Capital Goods after being used or as waste scrap has always been an area of litigation. Sub Rule (5A) of Rule 3 ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 is the governing rule in this regard. Before going into detail it is important to go through this rule, which is reproduced below:- (5A) If the capital goods, on which CENVAT credit has been taken, are removed after being used, whether as capital goods or as scrap or waste, the manufacturer or provider of output services shall pay an amount equal to the CENVAT Credit taken on the said capital goods reduced by the percentage points calculated by straight line method as specified below for each quarter of a year or part thereof from the date of taking the CEVAT Credit, namely:- (a) for computers and computer peripherals : for each quarter in the first year @ 10% for each quart .....

After going through this Sub Rule it seems that now everything is settled. Assessee is required to reverse Cenvat Credit availed at the time of removal of Capital goods as per the formula prescribed in the abovementioned Sub Rule in both the cases when Capital Goods are cleared after being used .....

But if we go through the proviso, there seems to be a problem when it says if the amount calculated as per the formula prescribed under Sub Rule (5A) is less than the amount equal to the duty leviable on transaction value, the amount to be paid shall be equal to the duty leviable on transaction value. It means if the transaction value of the old capital goods is more as compared to the formula prescribed under Sub Rule (5A), then Assessee is required to reverse Cenvat Credit equal to the duty payable on transaction value. It clearly shows that department is trying to impose Central Excise Duty on removal of Capital Goods through Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 . Is it required to Register the Premises (A.P) ? .....

If the same goods (used) are given for lease to any party and transferred to AP site, then also same provision will apply ?? why i am asking this one means, in my opinion Removal may not include Lease . and one more thing is that any attraction of State VAT on transfer. Kindly give me the your valuable suggestion. - Reply By KASTURI SETHI - The Reply = Dear Sh.Sunil D. Ji, In case the capital goods (used) are removed for lease, even then this formula of depreciated ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... value will be applicable. Do not go by the definition of 'removal'. The issue is whether the capital goods are removed 'as such' or 'after usage'. If removed as such full amount of credit taken has to be reversed. If after use, then above formula as advised by Sh.Mukund Thakkar, Sir will be applicable. Regarding applicability of VAT, I do not know. However, transfer of right to use the goods has been deemed as sale for the purpose of payment of VAT/Sale Tax. - Reply By KASTURI SETHI - The Reply = A few judgments on this issue are appended below:- 2014 (310) E.L.T. 956 (Tri. - Kolkata) = 2015 (1) TMI 588 - CESTAT KOLKATA NILKAMAL LTD.
