Appeal allows distribution of CENVAT credit to contract units on pro-rata basis
The appeal challenged the order confirming the demand of CENVAT credit by the Adjudicating Authority. The key issue was whether Parle Biscuits was justified in distributing credits on input services to its contract manufacturing units on a pro-rata basis under the CENVAT Rules. A Larger Bench of the Tribunal ruled in favor of the appellant, stating that Parle Biscuits was justified in distributing credits in such a manner. As a result, the order confirming the demand of CENVAT credit was set aside, and the appeal was allowed.
Issues: The appeal seeks to challenge the order confirming the demand of CENVAT credit by the Adjudicating Authority. The main issue is whether Parle Biscuits was justified in distributing credits on input services to its contract manufacturing units on a pro-rata basis under the CENVAT Rules.
Details: The appellant, a contract manufacturing unit for Parle Biscuits, claimed to be authorized by Parle Biscuits to manufacture biscuits on its behalf and comply with all procedural formalities under the Excise Act. The inputs for manufacturing the biscuits were supplied by Parle Biscuits, and the appellant availed CENVAT credit for payment of duty on the cleared biscuits. The final product was cleared on payment of excise duty based on the maximum retail price declared by Parle Biscuits. Parle Biscuits, as an input service distributor, centralized certain services like advertisement and marketing for all manufacturing units, including the appellant. Four show cause notices were issued to the appellant regarding the denial of CENVAT credit distributed by Parle Biscuits.
The key issue in the appeal was whether Parle Biscuits was justified in distributing credits on input services to its contract manufacturing units on a pro-rata basis under rule 7(d) of the CENVAT Rules. A Larger Bench of the Tribunal answered this issue in favor of the appellant, stating that Parle Biscuits was justified in distributing credits in such manner. Consequently, the order of the Commissioner (Appeals) confirming the demand of CENVAT credit was set aside, and the appeal was allowed.
