Dear Sir,

In the latest Union Budget. new Removal of goods(under concession Rates of duty) Rules,2016 prescribed in the place of old Rules. In the new Rules, only self declaration is sufficient and permission from the Asst./Deputy Commissioner is not required. Hence , you may apply afresh in terms of new Rules and execute the required Bond instead of continuing with the old permission.

Best regards

Dear Rajeev,

The provisions of Rule 4 ( sub rule 1 to 5 ) of the Removal of goods (under concessional rate of duty) Rules,2016 specifies that....

a. The manufacturer intended to procure goods should number the intimation under sub-rule (1) Financial year wise

b. should execute a general Bond with surety.

The above provision does not specify any thing about execution of Bond Financial year wise except the financial year wise numbering on the intimation.

In view of this , you may highlight this to your excise authorities and try to convince them.

However, the duty involved in the goods proposed to be procured in the next financial year exceeds the value of the Bond already executed, you may have to execute either an additional Bond for the differential amount or to execute a fresh Bond cancelling the existing Bond. You may please check this aspect also.

Best Regards

AI Summary

Excise bond continuity: bond need not be re-executed for new fiscal year unless duty exposure exceeds bond amount. Rule 4 of the Removal of Goods (Under Concessional Rate of Duty) Rules, 2016 requires financial-year wise numbering of intimations and execution of a general bond with surety, but does not require bonds to be executed anew each financial year; a fresh or additional bond is needed only if the duty exposure in the next financial year exceeds the amount secured by the existing bond.
