Jurisdictional reclassification: Central Excise divides Chandigarh into two jurisdictions, reallocating districts and appellate coverage. Amendment creates distinct Chandigarh-I and Chandigarh-II jurisdictions and substitutes entries across Tables I, IA, II and III of the principal Central Excise notification to reallocate specified Punjab districts, tehsils and parts of the Union territory of Chandigarh between the two jurisdictions, omits certain prior serial entries, and revises Commissioner of Central Excise (Appeals) listings to reflect two Chandigarh appellate commissionerates each covering Chandigarh-I, Chandigarh-II, Jammu and Kashmir and Ludhiana. The amendment is made under sub-rule (2) of rule 3 of the Central Excise Rules, 2002 and comes into force from the first day of April, 2009.
