Circular No. 572/9/2001-CX I am directed to state that it has come to notice of the Board that doubts prevail in the field formations in regard to action to be taken for disposal of refund/rebate cases where the matter is pending with different appellate authorities. In this regard, attention is drawn to the CBEC Circular No.398/31/98-CX dated 2nd June, 1998 and the CBEC Circular No.76/95-Cus dated 28th June, 1995. After examining the issue in detail and in suppression of the aforementioned Circulars,
Circular No.571/8/2001-CX I am directed to say that the Board has reviewed the working of the system of fortnightly payment of duty, which was introduced in the Budget for the year 2000-2001. The figures indicate that there have been considerable defaults in payments by large number of assessees. Indeed, legal provisions have been made to discourage defaults but it is necessary that executive measures should also be taken so that such defaults do not take place at all.
