of liquid gas
Circular
No. 21 dated 11th February 1994
I
am directed to refer to your letter F.No. VII/Ch. 28 (30) 10/93/12393 dated
26/10/1993 on the above subject.

The matter has been examined by the Board. It is observed that Rule 9 and
49 and also Rule 173G of Central Excise Rules, 1944 pre-suppose payment of duty
for each consignment by debit to account-current. It has, therefore, been
decided that clearances of Liquified gas in tanker lorries should not be allowed
without payment of duty. Such permission granted, if any, should be immediately
withdrawn. The suppliers of such gases may be directed to effect clearances
against orders from buyers indicating the specified quantities required by them
so that gate passes can be issued and duties paid in each case

A copy of the letter-dated 10.3.89 is also enclosed for information.
