Tribunal Rules on Excise Duty Remission, Denies Abatement for Factory Closure, Upholds Unjust Enrichment in Tax Refunds.

March 19, 2024

Case Laws     Central Excise     AT

Remission of Central Excise Duty - The tribunal found Rule 21 inapplicable, as it pertains to goods lost or destroyed before clearance from the factory, not to loss of production capacity. - It was held that the appellant could not claim abatement for non-production under Rule 8, as the factory's closure did not meet the minimum period stipulated for such abatement. - The tribunal dismissed the argument of unjust enrichment by referencing the Supreme Court's stance that refund claims based on taxes paid under an unconstitutional law are not unconditional and highlighted that the concept of unjust enrichment does not apply straightforwardly to the state in cases of tax collection and refund.
