the STP/ EHTP
Circular
No. 387 dated 1st May 1998
Under
Notification No. 1/95-CE, dated 4.1.95 and Notification No. 126/94-CE, dated
2.9.94 100% Export Oriented Units and Units located in EHTP/ STP/ FTZs are
permitted to remove the goods manufactured, produced, processed and packaged in
the unit for the purpose of repair, re-processing etc. without payment of duty
after seeking necessary permission from the jurisdictional Assistant
Commissioner of Central Excise.
2.
It has been represented by the Units located in the EHTP/ STP that this
permission from the Assistant Commissioner of Central Excise takes two or three
weeks, consequent to which, the working of the units gets severely hampered.
3.
The matter has been examined in the Board. I am directed to say that all
such cases, where the permission of Assistant Commissioner of Central Excise is
required, permission should be granted within 24 hours .of the receipt of the
application and delay should be avoided.
4.
The Commissioner of Central Excise should personally monitor cases of
unusual delay as well as harassment to the trade and stringent action should be
taken against erring officials. A report in this regard may be sent to the Board
by 15th of June 1998, indicating the cases where delays have taken place, so
that the matter may be reviewed further.
