2018 (3) TMI 255 – CESTAT NEW DELHI – 2018 (363) E.L.T. 851 (Tri. – Del.) – Applicability of Section 11AC (1)(d) of CEA – case of appellant is that said provision nowhere further applies to adjudicate the matter relatable to confiscations etc – Held that: – the conclusion of proceedings in terms of sub section (d) is provided in respect of cases mentioned in sub-section (c). Sub-section (c) relates to the evasion of duty by reason of fraud or collusion. As such it has to be held that in cases of fraud conclusion etc., the entire proceedings would get finally concluded on an assessee depositing the dues as mentioned in sub-section (d), thus not permitted further adjudication relatable to the confiscation of the goods on the vehicle etc.

hey confiscated the goods with an option to the appellant to redeem the same on payment of redemption fine of ₹ 50,000/-. Further, the truck belonging to the owner Shri Chatarpal Singh who was also confiscated with an option to redeem the same on payment of redemption fine of ₹ 40,000/- 3. The contention of the ld. Advocate is that the said provision of law i.e. Section 11AC (1)(d) provides for conclusion of the entire proceedings subject to the payment of duty, interest and 15% of penalty. The said provision nowhere further applies to adjudicate the matter relatable to confiscations etc. 4. After hearing the ld. AR appearing for the Revenue, I reproduce the relevant Section 11AC(1) (c) & (d) of the Central Excise Act, 1944. The amount of penalty for non-levy or short-levy or non-payment or short-payment or erroneous refund shall be as follows: (c) Where any duty of excise has not been levied or paid or has been short-levied or short-paid or erroneously refunded by reas

ifteen per cent of the duty demanded, subject to the condition that such reduced penalty is also paid within the period so specified and all proceedings in respect of the said duty, interest and penalty shall be deemed to be concluded. 5. As is seen from above, the provisions of sub-section (d) are invocable in respect of transactions mentioned in sub-section (c). The said sub section provides for conclusion of the proceedings in case an assessee deposits the dues as mentioned in the sub section within a period 30 days of the issue of the show cause notice. The said provision is with a purpose to reduce the litigation. However, the lower authorities have observed that as much as in the present case there was suppression with an intent to evade payment of duty, the confiscation of the goods as also the vehicle can be adjudicated upon. I find no merit in the above stand of the Revenue. On a careful reading of both the sub sections, an inevitable conclusion is drawn that the conclusion of

ited on 22.03.2013. The said capital goods were leased back to the petitioner with effect from 01.04.2013. According the petitioner, the goods were sold to OPC Limited only for financial accommodation and in view of the contemporaneous leasing back through rental agreement, there was no removal of capital goods from the factory premises of the petitioner and that therefore Rule 3(5) of the Cenvat Credit Rules is not attracted. 2.However, the respondent herein after scrutinizing the annual report of the assessee for the year 2012-13 during audit accounts conducted by the officers attached to Internal Audit of Madurai Commissionarate during Feb 2014 noted that deemed removal/delivery of the said capital goods to OPC Assets Solutions Pvt. Ltd was made on 22.03.2013 itself and the delivery of the goods back to the petitioner herein took place only on 01.04.2013.

oner, in the facts and circumstances of this case, the petitioner ought not to be non suited on that ground. 2.The impugned order is vitiated for failure to advert to the defence projected by the petitioner herein. 3.The whole basis of the show cause notice as well as the impugned order is unsustainable in law. 6.Per contra, the learned standing counsel appearing for the respondents reiterated the stand taken in the counter affidavit. 7.At the very outset, this Court must notice the prayer made in the writ petition. The petitioner seeks quashing of the impugned order on the ground of non consideration of the submissions made by them in the reply and during personal hearing. Therefore, all that the petitioner seeks is only a remand to the file of the respondent for fresh consideration in accordance with law. Since this is the prayer sought for the by the petitioner himself, this Court would not be justified in venturing into a discussion on the merits of the matter. If this Court comes

les, 2004 and the decision of the Allahabad High Court in (Hero Motors Ltd. v. Commissioner of Central Excise, Ghaziabad (2014 (310) E.L.T 729), held as follows : 16.On a plain reading of Rule 3 (5) of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004, we find that Rule 3 (5) only speaks about the removal of goods under cover of invoice referred to in Rule 9 on inputs or capital goods on which cenvat credit has been taken and if such goods are removed as such from the factory or premises of the provider of output service, the manufacturer of the final products or provider of output service, shall be liable to pay an amount equal to the credit availed in respect of such inputs or capital goods. 17.In this case, we find there is no removal of goods under cover of invoice as provided under Rule 9 of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 and there is nothing in Rule 3 (5) of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 to invoke the deeming fiction as insisted by the adjudicating authority.

it had been specifically pleaded that the aforesaid decision of the Division Bench of this Court was referred to not only in the written submissions but also reiterated at the time of personal hearing. This factual assertion is not controverted in the counter affidavit filed by the respondent. This Court went through the impugned order in its entirety. The defence projected by the petitioner herein based on 2015 323 ELT 290(Commissioner of Central Excise, Trichy vs. CESTAT) has not been referred to or considered. On this sole ground, the impugned order is liable to be quashed. 11.In any adjudicatory process, the authority has a duty to deal with every material and relevant contention raised by the disputant. This alone will ensure that decision-making occurs thoroughly and lawfully and that the decision-maker's mind is focussed.

other aspect of the matter. The stand of the writ petitioner is that the revenue has not questioned the legality of the sale dated 22.03.2013 and the rental agreement. In the counter affidavit it has been stated that the revenue has not accepted the transaction as genuine at any point of time. If according to the respondent, the sale dated 22.03.2013 is not genuine, the question of deemed removal of the goods will not even arise. This Court is of the view that while the assessee can argue in the alternative, the department cannot. The respondent must take a clear and definite stand. For all these reasons, the order impugned in the writ petition is quashed. The matter is remitted to the file of the respondent for fresh consideration in accordance with law. The respondent shall afford an opportunity of personal hearing to the petitioner. It is necessary to sound a note of caution here. The respondent no doubt has filed a counter affidavit seeking to sustain the order impugned in this wr

? Ans. The IGST refund module has been designed to have an in-built mechanism to automatically process and grant refund after validating the shipping bill data available in ICES against the GST return data transmitted by GSTN. Manual intervention would be limited to only exceptional cases where automatic validation becomes impossible due to some technical errors. Such exceptional cases would be only those which would be .approved by the Board and the procedure in those cases would be separately laid out.

GST is to be paid on the actual transaction value of the supply between the exporter and the consignee, which should be the same as the one declared in the commercial invoice. If SBOO5 is due to a data entry mistake in GSTR 1, it can be send ed. in or if 9A.d But any mistake in the SB cannot be amended once EGM is filed. Also, if the exporter has used a separate invoice in the SB, he cannot include that in his GSTR 1 in lieu of his GST invoice. Thus, SB005 error, as of now, cannot be corrected by any amendment either in GSTR 1 or in the shipping bill. For these cases, a mechanism is being considered by the Board to make the requisite corrections manually in line with the recent amendments in Rule 96 of the CGST Rules, 2017. The said mechanism is expected to be available shortly. It may, however, be noted that these interim workarounds shall only be available as a one- time measure for the past SBs. It is advised that the exporters should take care so as not to repeat such mistakes in f
