Regarding applicability of Sl. No. 105 to Notification No. 11/ 97-Cus.
dated 01.3.97 to CRGO sheets
Circular No. 18 dated 9th June 1997
In terms of Sr.
No. 105 to Notification No. 11/ 97-Cus. dated 01.3.97 Cold rolled coils falling
under Chapter 72 of the Customs tariff are liable to basic duty of Customs @ 25%
ad valorem. In this context it has been further clarified vide Board's Telex
F.No. B-31/ 2/ 97 - TRU dated 17.4.97 that this entry shall include all types of
cold rolled coils of mild steel/ non-alloy steel/ stainless steel/ alloy steel.
2. A
dispute has arisen regarding applicability of this Sl.No. (Sl. No.105 to
Notification No. 11/ 97-Customs dated 01.3.97) to Cold Rolled Grain Oriented (CRGO)
Steel Sheets/ Strips in coil and Cold Rolled Non Grain Oriented (CRNGO) Steel
sheets/ strips in Coil.
3. The
matter has been examined by the Board and I am directed to say that the CRGO/
CRNGO sheets are coated sheets of non-alloy steel. Therefore, these will fall
under the category of products, which have been worked further than cold
rolling. For the purposes of classification under the Customs Tariff, Sheets,
which have not been further worked than cold, rolled and coated sheets are two
different products classifiable under different headings. As such, for the
purposes of notification also these will remain two different products. It is,
therefore clarified that CRGO/ CRNGO sheets/ Strips in coil will not be entitled
to the benefit of concessional duty available vide Sl. no. 105 to notification
No. 11/97 Customs dated 01.3.97.
