Cess liability on tea waste: export-bound clearances without excise duty still attract cess absent a specific rules exemption. An exemption notification under the Central Excise Act does not ipso facto exempt goods from cess; cess is leviable unless specifically exempted under the Central Excise Rules, 1944. A separate notification under the rules is required to permit clearance of tea waste without payment of cess; since no such notification under Rule 191B exists, cess is payable on tea waste cleared under bond without Central Excise duty.
