[Guest]

Dear Sir,

Please advise whether we can clear goods to ONGC without Excise duty against Project Authority Certificate, we are a paint manufacturing company we will be supplying paint to them and also providing service to them by applying such paint to their production tanks etc.Hence request you to please advise.

Sir, in my view excise duty is applicable. Also service tax is applicable on service to be provided by you. Thanks.

AI Summary

Excise duty applicability on supplies to project authorities affirmed, and service tax applies to onsite painting services. The advisory position is that excise duty applies to clearance of goods to ONGC under a Project Authority Certificate and service tax applies to the onsite service of applying paint to their tanks.
