Capital goods intended for use in a warehouse authorised to undertake manufacture or other operations may remain warehoused until clearance under the amended customs framework. Interest on warehoused goods is confined to residuary goods and does not apply to capital goods falling within the specified category. Intended use is determined when the goods are imported and warehoused; actual subsequent use is not required. Solar modules intended for a solar power project retained their character as capital goods despite becoming surplus because of later design and layout changes. A circular concerning clearance for non-manufacturing purposes cannot impose interest where the statute does not provide for it.
