of the duty paid on inputs and capital goods and also
service tax paid on input service against the Excise duty
on final products or service tax o input service.

(Includes 10% Tax paid on it i.e. Rs.10)
2. Value addition Rs.200
3. Total (1+2) Rs.310

Answer / ramkumar nair

Before I am going to explain what is cenvat, you have to
under stand the Indian tax Central Excise Duty (BED). It
is called as basic excise duty. Every manufacturer is
liable to pay the excise duty in various kinds namely Basic
Excise Duty, Special Excise Duty, Additional Excise Duty
etc.,
Just think over a product which is reached to a end user,
how many manufacturing activities are done. So to reduce
the tax burden of the end user, the Govt. of India
introduce the MODVAT scheme which is now called CENVAT
scheme.
Based on this, if any manufacturer purchased a material,
which is duty paid, and if it is used for his further
manufacturing activity, he can avail this as credit in his
book based on the Central Excise Invoice. At the time of
selling his manufactured goods, he is liable to pay the
excise duty. He can adjust the credit which he has taken
into his book and pay the rest. For example:
CENVAT availed at the time purchased various goods
Rs.20,000 (Excise duty alone)
CENVAT payable for his product at the time sales
Rs.25,000

paid at the time of purchase for excise goods and the tax

Answer / raminder dhiman

In Simple words,

Cenvat Credit is a scheme introduced by the government to
avoid the Cascading effect.

In other words, when raw material is produced and duty is
paid to the seller of raw material, the purchaser books the
amount of excise duty in his books as credit. Later on
when finished goods are removed and excise duty is paid on
removal, the credit booked earlier is deducted from the
excise duty paid on the final product. This eliminates the
cascading effect.

Answer / sanjeev kumar mahajan

i agree with the solution by mr. Ramkumar .. Nair. subject
to the one correction that "At the time of
selling his manufactured goods, he is liable to pay the
excise duty".Actully the manufacturer become liable to pay
immediately on the manufure of the final product not at the
time of sale of manufacure goods. Wallace floor mill CAse
and Bombay tyre international Ltd. (1983) case. Further
collection can be delayed till the sale of final good.
Reference of Articl 265 of constitution - for levy of
tax ...... Thus, practicly CCR can be utilized at the time
of sale of final good or provision of services. Conclusion
Mr. Ramkumar is otherwise correct. Keep it up. Regards....
