Member (CX) chairs Tariff Conference; resolves many contentious issues

By TIOL News Service

NEW DELHI, OCT 29, 2015: A two days conference of Chief Commissioners/Principal Commissioners of Central Excise was held in Chandigarh on 28th and 29th of October, 2015 with Member (Central Excise), Central Board of Excise and Customs chairing the conference. Chief Commissioners/Principal Commissioners from across the country attended the conference. The conference deliberated on a large number of issues relating to Central Excise law affecting the manufacturers of goods. The conference resolved most of the issues to bring out certainty in assessment, uniformity in practice across the country and clarity in understanding the legal issues.

It is expected that the resolution of such large number of technical issues in Central Excise taxation would reduce litigation and improve ease of doing business. The conference also identified issues where further simplification of business processes needs to be carried out to augment the efforts of the Government towards “Make in India” campaign.
