Grinding wheels - unit of measure needs to be changed in Tariff

FEBRUARY 22, 2016


By Jagdish Pandey, Sr. Manager - Central Excise, Saint Gobain

WE are manufacturer of Grinding Wheels falling under Excise Tariff 68. This product is sold in the market in Units. Its valuation is done on Rate per unit basis. As per market practice this product is accounted, valuated and sold in Units.

Unfortunately in Excise tariff 'unit of measure' is mentioned as Kg (pl. see the highlighted portion) below. Which is not logical & correct. Because of this we face many problems from department. They will always ask us to mention the unit of measure for this product as per excise tariff. Also we would like to state that while filing ER-1 there will always be following remark

'The unit of measure entered is not valid for the CETSH selected. Please enter the valid unit. The unit is Kg. Please consult the tariff for a listing of units.'

We request your good office to highlight this anomaly and ask CBEC to correct this. Unit mentioned in excise Tariff should be corrected as 'U' instead of mentioning it as Kg.
