Dear Mr. Satbir,

As per the recent Notification No. 34/2015-CE dated 17.07.15, Excise is applicable on RMG if the input is exempted which holds true in your case as fabric is exempted from duty of Excise.

Wait till tomorrow, CBEC may come with amendment or clarification which may restore earlier provisions of Duty Exemption as was prevailing under 30/2004-CE dated 09.07.04

Dear Satbir ji,

Agreed with you and the amended Notification No. 37/2015 and CBEC Circular No. 1005/2015 issued on 21.07.2015 clarifies the issue and restored the position as it existed prior to 17.07.15.

I have met you long back in Ludhiana.
