Tool amortisation., Central Excise

[Sanjeev Goski]

We have sold mould to our customer without charging excise duty becase that mould we have kept with us to supply components. We availed excise duty on mould purchased from our vendor. Now before completion of project we want to return the mould to the customer.

1) Do we need to reverse cgst credit for balance life of the mould as we have taken excise duty credit on that mould or can we charge cgst to our customer by invoice. can customer get the credit of cgst. We are not job worker. We are not going to charge anything while returning the mould to the customer as he is the owner of the same. Pls. reply. [email protected] - 7709482039

AI Summary

Reversal of input tax credit required when claimed credit relates to mould returned to owner; GST tool amortisation not taxable.
Where CENVAT credit was availed on moulds that are subsequently supplied or returned to the customer without charging duty, the availing party must reverse the input tax credit proportionately when supplying the moulds back; under the GST regime, tool amortisation is not subject to GST, but historic CENVAT/input tax credit require the described reversal on transfer.
