<h1>Section 9: Excise Duty Offences May Lead to Up to 7 Years' Imprisonment and Fines for Major Violations.</h1> Section 9 of the Central Excise Act, 1944, outlines offences and penalties related to excise duty. Offences include contravening provisions, evading duty, unauthorized removal or dealing with excisable goods, and providing false information. Penalties for offences involving excisable goods with duty exceeding fifty lakh rupees include imprisonment up to seven years and fines, with a minimum of six months' imprisonment unless special reasons are recorded. Repeat offenders face similar penalties. Certain factors, such as first-time conviction or being a secondary party, are not considered adequate reasons for reducing the minimum imprisonment term.
