Value threshold for soap raised, expanding the eligible per tonne exemption limit under central excise notification. Amendment to Notification No. 39/87-C.E. substitutes in the Table against S. No. 02, in column (2), the words and figures 'Rs. 25,000 per tonne' with the words and figures 'Rs. 30,000 per tonne', thereby altering the per tonne valuation threshold applicable to soap for the purposes of the notification.
