<h1>Revised Central Excise Adjudication Powers: New Monetary Limits for Officers u/ss 33 & 11A to Streamline Process.</h1> The circular outlines revised adjudication powers for Central Excise officers under Sections 33 and 11A of the Central Excise Act, 1944. It establishes uniform monetary limits for adjudicating cases, irrespective of fraud or intent to evade duty, enhancing the monetary threshold for different officer categories. Deputy/Assistant Commissioners handle cases up to Rs. 5 lakhs, Joint Commissioners up to Rs. 50 lakhs, and Commissioners without limit. The circular rescinds previous instructions, mandates written approval for show cause notices, and requires adjustments in pending cases and reporting by Chief Commissioners. These changes aim to streamline and expedite the adjudication process.
