My dear fellow exporters,

I am glad to inform you that after many presentations from the Council to the Department ofCommerce on the need to halt the declining export trend in the Hand Tools Industry, five tarifflines in the Hand Tools Industry has now been included in the Focus Product Scheme. The Councilconveys its thanks to the Department of Commerce for recognizing the tremendous contributionthat the Hand Tools Industry has made not only in promoting export, but also in creatingemployment generation in the country for which it needs to be supported through progressivemeasures such as the Focus Product Scheme. I hope this will provide the necessary boosterfor Hand Tools Exporters and they will take necessary steps to reverse the declining export trendin their sector.

The confusion with regard to the export duty Notification No. 66/2008-Customs dated 10th May,2008 continues and the Council has also met Shri Vivek Johri, Joint Secretary (TRU), Ministryof Finance, Government of India, in this regard. Shri Johri has requested that in case of problemsrelated to such confusion being created at the Customs Offices, members may kindly intimatethe same by letter to Shri Johri. Members may kindly write to us mentioning the HS Codes ontheir products on which export duties are being charged by the Customs Authorities and can alsowrite directly to Shri Johri, which can be sent by Fax to him at the No. 011-2309 2031

As I had informed to you last week, the Indo-EU Trade Sub-Commission will be held in the monthof June 2008. The Council has made a detailed presentation to the Government in this regardhighlighting the problem faced by our member exporters on issues such as Visa, technicalstandards, high certification charges etc. We hope that at the Trade Sub-Commission meetingwill discuss threadbare these issues to enable Indian exporters to enhance their links with EuropeanUnion. Some members have also mentioned to us about the problems faced by them with regardto GSP and GSTP Certification at EIC offices. We have already taken up this matter with theDepartment of Commerce and we hope that steps would be taken to streamline this process.

I would also like to inform you that the Council has submitted an application for the World TPOAwards 2008 for the best TPO from a developing country category. This is, indeed, a prestigiousaward and TPO�s from various parts of the world apply for the award. We have presented anexcellent document along with our application to justify why EEPC should get the award in thiscategory and we hope that with your blessings, the Council will be able to achieve this milestone.

Yours sincerely,

(RAKESH SHAH)

Department of RevenueCentral Board of Excise & Customs

New Delhi

Circular No. 870/08/2008-CXDated 12th May, 2008

Subject : Payment of amount under Rule 6 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004 � reg.

The undersigned is directed to refer to Circular No. 599/36/2001-CX dated November, 2001, wherein the issue of theapplicability of the provision of section 11D of the Central Excise Act, 1944 in cases of payments made under erstwhile rule57CC (1) of the Central Excise Rules, 1944 was examined. It has been brought to the notice of the Board that there are somedecisions of the Tribunal contrary to the said circular. Further, rule 6 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004, has been amendedw.e.f. 01.04.2008, necessitating re-examination of the circular of the circular in the light of these developments.

2. It is seen that the Larger Bench of the Tribunal in the case of Unison Metals Ltd. Versus Commissioner of Central Excise,Ahmedabad-I [2006(2004) E.L.T. 323 (Tri.-LB)] has held that section 11D provides that any amount which has been collectedas excise duty and not paid to the credit of the Central Government shall be liable to be recovered. The scheme of the Lawis that manufacturers shall not collect amounts falsely representing them as Central Excise duty and retain them, thus,unjustly benefiting themselves. However, in case of payments made under erstwhile rule 57CC(1), Section 11D of the Act isnot applicable since the amount of 8% or 10% has already been paid to the revenue and no amount is retained by theassessee. The said order of the Tribunal has been accepted by the Department.

3. The matter has been examined. Sub-rule (3) of rule 6 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004 has been amended w.e.f.01.04.2008 to provide for payment of an amount equal to 10% of value of the exempted goods, instead of 10% of the priceof the exempted goods as provided earlier. The value is to be determined as per section 4 or 4A of the Central Excise Act,1944 read with rules made thereunder.

4. In the light of what is sated above, it is clarified that as long as the amount of 8% or 10% is paid to the Government interms of erstwhile rule 57CC of the Central Excise Rules, 1944 or rule 6 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, the provisions ofsection 11D shall not apply even if the amount is recovered from the buyers. However, it may be noted that the CENVATcredit of the said amount of 8% or 10% cannot be taken by the buyer since such payment is not a payment of duty in termsof rule 3(1) of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004. Therefore, the said 10% amount should be shown in the invoice as �10%amount paid under Rule 6 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004�.

5. Board�s Circular No. 599/36/2001-CX dated November, 2001 stands withdrawn.

6. The field formations as well as trade and industry may be suitably informed.
