Interest
not payable under Section 11BB of the CEA'44 to Un-spent balance
in PLA;
Refund
- Merely because Unjust enrichment does not apply to Unspent balance
in PLA as per S. 11B(2), yet the same is not a duty of excise -
said provision has been incorporated as an abundant precaution to
ensure that even by mistake, the provision of unjust enrichment
is not applied for such refund;
Since
there is a specific provision for refund of PLA balance under Rule
9(1)(A) and 173G(1A) of the CER, 1944, therefore, such refund would
be squarely covered under the said Rules and not under Section 11B
of the CEA'44;
