Excise Duty Rules for Manufacturers: Sending Raw Materials to Job Workers under Notification No. 214/86-CE & Rule 4(6) Explained A query was raised regarding the excise duty obligations when a manufacturer sends raw materials or capital goods to a job worker and receives them back within 180 days. The response clarified that the manufacturer must follow procedures under Notification No. 214/86-CE and Rule 4(6) of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004. No additional intimation to the excise department is needed upon receiving the goods back. If the job worker's activity constitutes manufacturing, the principal manufacturer is liable for excise duty, unless the goods are not returned, in which case the job worker may pay the duty. If the activity is not manufacturing, the job worker pays service tax after a threshold exemption. (AI Summary)
