The customer now wishes to sell the machine back to the manufacturer as an asset sale, having reversed the excise duty credit previously availed. The manufacturer seeks advice on whether they can take the machine as input and avail CENVAT credit or if they need to show it as a sales return. It is advised that if the machine is used in the factory, it can be received as input for CENVAT credit. If resold, it should be shown as a sales return.
