CBEC Circular
CBEC instructs its officers - Board
Circulars contrary to the judgements
of Hon'ble Supreme Court should not
be followed:
Doesnt it look obvious? But obviously it
was not being followed by the officers.
Therefore, the Board has clarified that
Circulars contrary to the judgements of
Hon'ble Supreme Court become non-est
in law (i.e. legally they do not exist) and
should not be followed. All pending cases
decided after the date of the judgement
should, conform to the law laid by the
Hon'ble Supreme Court or High Court,
as the case may be, irrespective of
whether the circular has been rescinded
or not.
CASE LAWS
By this judgment dated 29th July 2015,
the Hon'ble Supreme Court has reversed
the judgment of Division Bench of the
High Court of Kerala.

Credit
gets
accumulated due to exports, then refund
of the same can be claimed under rule 5.
In the present case, when the appellant
sought
refund,
the
department
contended that the credit itself was not
available since the final products were
exempted. Honble Tribunal held that
the refund cannot be denied for this
reason. The Tribunal relied on the
decision of Honble Bombay High Court
in Repro India Limited wherein it had
been held that the petitioners are
entitled to avail Cenvat Credit in respect
of the inputs used in the manufacture of
the final products being exported
irrespective of the fact that the final
products are otherwise exempt.
