Case Law Details
Vedanta Ltd Vs Commissioner of Central Excise & Customs (CESTAT Chennai)
Introduction: In a recent judgment by CESTAT Chennai, Vedanta Ltd (previously known as Sterlite Industries Ltd) was granted a notable relief regarding the rebate on the export of anode slime.
The Background of the Case: Vedanta Ltd, a company involved in the manufacture of various products including copper anode and anode slime, had previously filed for a rebate claim concerning duties they paid on their exported goods. Post scrutiny, the Assistant Commissioner sanctioned their entire rebate request. However, a contention arose concerning the rebate for anode slime, amounting to a significant Rs. 35,34,86,306/-. The bone of contention was the applicability of a specific exemption under a notification that potentially rendered the sanctioned rebate erroneous.
