Excise Duty Clarification: Duty Based on Depot Price at Factory Removal, Not Sale Price; Place of Removal Crucial A query was raised regarding the payment of differential excise duty when goods are transferred from a factory to a depot and subsequently sold at different prices. An expert clarified that duty should be based on the price at the depot on the date of removal from the factory, not the sale price at the depot.
