<h1>Excise Duty Refunds for Diplomatic Missions: New Procedure Designates Claim Recipients; Interest on Delays Beyond 90 Days.</h1> The circular addresses the refund of excise duty on excisable goods purchased by diplomatic missions. Previously, refund claims had to be filed within one year of purchase, but delays in processing led to claims becoming time-barred. To rectify this, the procedure now designates the Assistant/Deputy Commissioner of Central Excise as the recipient of claims, with the filing date marked by submission to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). Refunds must be sanctioned within three months, and delays beyond 90 days incur interest. If MEA delays forwarding claims beyond 30 days, it must pay interest for the delay.
