Subject: Supplies  made from 100% EOU to EPCG licence

holder in DTA  -  clarification  thereon.                         Attention is invited to para 6.9(a) of Foreign Trade Policy, 2004-09, in terms of which  supplies by  EOU/EHTP/STP/BTP Units in the DTA under EPCG Scheme are counted for the purpose of fulfillment of positive  NFE.  Representations have been received drawing attention to the fact that in the absence of any specific Customs/Central Excise  notification for exempting   payment  of Central Excise on such supplies, the units are facing difficulties in removal of goods from the EOUs.   2.         The matter has been considered in consultation with Central Board of Excise & Customs.  It is, accordingly, clarified that since EPCG Scheme is implemented through end use based notifications, the goods being cleared from an EOU under EPCG Scheme would attract a Central Excise Duty equal to aggregate of effective customs duty leviable on like  goods imported i.e. Duty calculated after applying end use based notification as per circular  dated 15.9.1994 issued from CBEC F.No.305/83/94-FTT.  Therefore, EOUs can clear goods under EPCG licence at concessional rate of duty and there is no requirement for any other separate exemption notification in this regard.   3.         This issues with the approval of DGFT.                                                                                                                                        Sd/- (P.K.Santra) Dy.
