Jurisdictional allocation under central excise amended: territorial divisions of Chief Commissioners and Commissioners redefined. The Central Board of Excise and Customs, invoking sub rule (2) of rule 3 of the Central Excise Rules, 2002, amends Notification No.14/2002 CE(N.T.) by substituting Table I, Table II and Table III. The substitutions redefine territorial jurisdictions: Table I lists Chief Commissioners with their constituent commissioners; Table II prescribes precise territorial limits for each Commissioner of Central Excise (municipal wards, taluks/tehsils, districts, Union Territory areas and specified exceptions); Table III maps Commissioners (Appeals) to their subordinate commissionerates.
