Modvat credit protection: input credit preserved despite intermediate or capital goods exemptions, with procedural returns and enquiry powers. Amendments clarify that Modvat credit cannot be denied because intermediate products arise or inputs are used in capital goods, even if those items are temporarily exempt or nil rated, provided intermediate products are used within the factory for dutiable final products and specified under notification; inputs used to generate electricity or steam within the factory also qualify. Procedural rules permit authorised removal of inputs outside the factory for specified operations after intimation, require monthly returns with duty documents for verification, and empower officers to require documents, examine persons, and reassess duty payable.
