Attention is invited to Circular No. 53/88-CX-6 dated 12.07.1998 wherein a revised abstract of XT-I diary was circulated. Over the years, the Central Excise laws and procedures have undergone several changes, and a need was felt to revise the format of the XT-I Diary. The revised XT-I contains important work carried out during a month and it does not require reporting of daily functioning as was being done in present XT-I format.
