Circular No. 946/07/2011-CX In the context of revision of the delegated powers to write off irrecoverable tax arrears, most of the Chief Commissioners did not recommend any enhancement of the existing monetary limits prescribed vide Board’s Circular dated 21.9.1990. On the other hand, the Chief Commissioners suggested adoption of a Committee system for deciding cases of write off of arrears as followed by the CBDT. It is seen that CBDT, while revising the delegated powers to write off arrears, has prescribed constitution of Committees at different levels for taking a decision to write off arrears in deserving cases.
CIRCULAR [F. NO. A. 35017/35/2011-AD.II], DATED 30-5-2011 – I am directed to state that seven (7) posts of Indirect Tax Ombudsman at 7 stations, viz., New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad and Lucknow (in the HAG + pay scale of Rs. 75,500-80,000 per month) have been created vide Sanction Order No. 92/2011, dated 5-5-2011 issued from File No. A-11011/1/2006-Ad.I of this Department.
CIRCULAR [D.O. F.NO.A-12026/5/2011-AD.I], DATED 25-5-2011 You are aware that the Government of India has created 7 posts of Indirect Tax Ombudsman at 7 stations, viz., New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad and Lucknow under the Indirect Tax Ombudsman Guidelines, 2011. Selection for the posts of Indirect Tax Ombudsman in these locations is to be made.
Circular No. 945/06/2011-CX Exemption is limited to pipes needed for delivery of water from its source to the water treatment plant and from there to the first storage point and that the duty concession was not available for pipes required to supply the treated water from its storage place to the place of consumption. This was the correct reflection of the scope as it existed at the relevant time. However, the scope of this notification was widened by inserting entry (3) to this notification thereby extending the benefit of excise duty exemption also to the pipes of outer diameter exceeding 20 cm when such pipes are integral part of water supply projects by amendment vide Notification No. 6/2007 dated 1-3-07 and subsequently vide Notification No. 26/2009 dated 4-12-09, the outer diameter exceeding 10 cm was prescribed for exemption.
It has been noticed that several reports are received by the Judicial & Review Section and the Legal Section of the Board as well as the Directorate of Legal Affairs (DLA) in matters relating to litigation. Many of the reports contain similar or identical information and some of them have outlived their utility and are not required any more. The multiplicity of such reports, duplication of work in preparing similar reports for different wings of the Board leads to waste of priceless resources. This was also discussed in the Annual Conference of the Chief Commissioners and Directors General held in June 2010 in New Delhi. It has, therefore, been decided to call for a comprehensive monthly report as part of the Monthly Technical Report (MTR) being sent by the field formations in matters concerning Legal and Judicial Sections of the Board as well as the Directorate of Legal Affairs (DLA).

Is the credit of only specified goods and services listed in the definition of inputs and input services not allowed such as goods used in a club, outdoor catering etc, or is the list only illustrative?
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 5A of the Central Excise Act, 1944 (1 of 1944),read with sub-section (3) of section 3 of the Additional Duties of Excise (Goods of Special Importance ) Act,1957 ( 58 of 1957), the Central Government, on being satisfied that it is necessary in the public interest so to do, hereby makes the following further amendments in the notification of the Government of India in the Ministry of Finance
NOTIFICATION NO. 13/2011 – CENTRAL EXCISE (N.T.)- The CENVAT credit in respect of input service shall be allowed, on or after the day on which the invoice, bill or, as the case may be, challan referred to in rule 9 is received: Provided that in case of an input service where the service tax is paid on reverse charge by the recipient of the service, the CENVAT credit in respect of such input service shall be allowed on or after the day on which payment is made of the value of input service and the service tax paid or payable as indicated in invoice, bill or, as the case may be, challan referred to in rule 9:
It has been provided that if the RSP is not affixed or marked on goods when they are cleared in the course of sale from the factory of a manufacturer to the brand owner, the wholesale price declared by the manufacturer would be deemed to be the tariff value for the payment of duty. This has been provided through the insertion of a proviso in Notification No.20/2001-CE (NT), dated 30th April, 2001 through amendment Notification No. 12/2011-CE (NT), dated 24th March, 2011. Since the process of labelling or re-labelling constitutes a process of “manufacture”, duty on the tariff value (based on the actual RSP) would once again be payable as and when the brand owner labels the goods with the RSP and clears them for further sale. The garments purchased by the brand owner being duty-paid, he would also be entitled to claim credit and utilize that for the payment of duty when he clears the goods after affixing the RSP.
