The cenvat rate is reduced from 16% to 14% from 1.3.2008. Consequently, the education cess will be computed on 14% and the rate including the education cess will be 14.42%. · In some products like medicaments, the duty rate has been reduced to 8%. The cenvat credit availed by the manufacturer is not dependent on the duty rate of the final product. Therefore, whatever duty is paid by the manufacturer of the inputs, the credit of the same would be available to the manufacturer of the final product even if the rate of duty for such product is 8%. Thus, if a manufacturer of medicament buys bulk drug which attracts duty @ 14%, the credit of entire amount of duty would be available to the manufacturer. There will be no reduction in the quantum of credit available to the manufacturer.
