In exercise of the powers conferred by section 37 of the Central Excise Act, 1944 (1 of 1944), the Central Government hereby makes the following rules to amend the Central Excise Valuation (Determination of Price of Excisable Goods) Rules, 2000
I am directed to say that it has been brought to the notice of the Board that often there is delay in issue of Adjudication/Appellate orders in cases where personal hearing has already been concluded. In certain cases the issue of orders has taken substantially longer periods even after conclusion of personal hearing. This kind of situation could result mainly due to lack of proper supervision on the part of the senior officers.
