Central excise exemption scope expanded to include goods at an additional serial entry, altering proviso application. The amendment substitutes the phrase 'goods specified against Sl. No. 7' with 'goods specified against Sl. No. 7 and 7C' in the first proviso to the opening paragraph of the principal excise notification, thereby extending the proviso's application to goods listed at the additional serial entry; the change takes effect from 20th November, 2024.
