Issues: Whether central excise duty was chargeable and any offence was made out when goods entered in RG 1 were removed from the approved premises for reprocessing or recycling within the factory after intimation to the Department and appropriate accounting entries.
Analysis: The letter addressed to the Superintendent showed that the Department had been informed of the proposed removal for reprocessing or recycling. The goods had been properly entered in RG 1 and reflected in RT 12 returns. The Board's instructions and the trade notice relied upon by the lower authority supported the position that goods kept in the bonded storeroom could be removed for modification, conversion or similar treatment within the factory, provided the necessary entries were maintained in the accounts.
Conclusion: No duty was chargeable and no offence was made out.
Final Conclusion: The Department's appeal was rejected and the order allowing the respondents' claim was left undisturbed.
Ratio Decidendi: Where the manufacturer has duly informed the Department and maintained the prescribed accounts, removal of goods from the bonded storeroom for in-factory reprocessing or recycling does not attract excise duty or constitute an offence.
