Dear Shri Gopalan,
Sub : Depositing 1% RD Cash deposit to safeguard revenue loss – reg
Please refer to your letter DO No. 106/Nov/AS(RG)/2008 dated 27th
November, 2008 on the above subject.
2. I have looked into the matter. There was a practice of taking 1% duty
deposit in terms of the CBEC instruction in force in cases where the value of
goods supplied by related persons was being investigated by the Department.
The matter has been reviewed and the practice of 1% duty has been
discontinued in respect of 100% EOUs who are eligible to import their
entitlements free of duty. Accordingly the assessments are now being made
without any extra deposit of revenue.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
Sd/-
