The proviso to the sub rule has been introduced to take care of such situation. It is possible for a dealer to misuse the rule by making the sale of loss making goods against the Cenvatable invoice and profit making goods by reversal of credit. In those circumstances there will be revenue loss.

Rule 3(4A)(a) of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2002 [(4A) Notwithstanding any thing contained in these rules, (a) a first or second stage dealer, dealing exclusively in goods falling under Chapter 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62 or 63 of the First Schedule to the Tariff Act, may, at his option, remove such goods, whether or not after undertaking activities such as packing, repacking, on payment of an amount equal to the duty of excise, which is leviable on such goods at the rate applicable on the date of removal and on the value determined for such goods under sub-section (2) of section 3 or section 4 .....

We find that while Apex court held that reversing the credit amounts to not taking credit at all in the context of duty payment. In the instant case such interpretation would make proviso to Rule 3(4A)(a) of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2002 otios. In these circumstances such interpretation cannot be accepted.
