An EOU (100% Export Oriented Unit) is entitled to take suo-moto re-credit of the CENVAT credit earlier reversed, without following the refund procedure u/s 11B of the Central Excise Act, 1944. When the original credit was eligible, and the reversal was merely an accounting entry, suo-moto re-credit is permissible. The extended period of limitation cannot be invoked without evidence of willful misstatement or suppression. Consequently, the demand of Rs.40,64,459/- u/r 14 of CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004 read with Section 11A of the Central Excise Act, 1944, interest, and penalties were held untenable by the CESTAT. The appeal was allowed.
