<h1>New Guidelines for Adjudicating Show Cause Notices Issued on Audit Objections; Quarterly Coordination Meetings Required.</h1> The Central Board of Excise and Customs issued a circular to streamline the adjudication process for show cause notices based on audit objections from the Central Excise Revenue Audit (CERA) and Customs Revenue Audit (CRA). The circular rescinds previous instructions, providing new guidelines to ensure timely responses at various stages of the audit objection process. It mandates quarterly coordination meetings to reconcile audit objections and specifies that show cause notices should not be transferred to the call-book. Adjudication must consider audit objections, departmental replies, and relevant legal provisions, ensuring independent and judicious decisions. The circular applies to all future and pending audit objections.
