Dear Sirs,
We are selling 90 percent of our product to our subsidiary company, which in turn sells them to various (unrelated)end customers (at varying prices). The remaining 10 percent is sold to outsiders. If the selling price is the same (to the subsidiary and outsiders), whether we have to follow the 110 percent of Cost of Production method for paying Central Excise Duty? If the sale value is different, what are the provisions for determining excise duty to be paid?
thanks and regards.
Related-party valuation requires a cost-of-production based method and valuation rules for subsidiary resales under excise law. Sales to a related person are to be valued for excise by applying the 110 percent of Cost of Production method, with cost of production computed under the CAS 4 accounting method. Where a subsidiary resells the goods to other customers, valuation provisions for intercompany transfers apply and the subsidiary's resale prices do not displace the related-party valuation method.
