Cess on exports questioned over its purpose; legislative clarification required for use and allocation of funds.
Customs has long imposed a cess @ 3.5% on the export of mica. The operative question is the purpose, use and allocation of proceeds collected under that cess, and whether administrative authorities can explain its application; the only authoritative source for the policy rationale and lawful destination of those funds is the legislature.
