The undersigned
is directed to refer to the provisions of notification no. 64/ 94 Customs dt.

S. No. 1 whereas under S. No. 3 ibid, specified parts of the same imported for
manufacture of WOEGs are extended nil rate of duty.
The Ministry of
Non-Conventional Energy Sources has intimated that there are possibilities of
attempts to import complete WOEGs, even second hand ones, in CKD condition to
avail the benefit of Nil rate available on parts, whereas the concession is
meant only for imports of components by manufacturers.
The information
is being brought to your notice for necessary action. It may kindly be ensured
that the Government's prescription of differential rates of duty between
complete WOEGs and specified components for manufacturers is strictly enforced
and not allowed to be circumvented by resorting to such methods.
