Case No. 419

Reference from Development Commissioner, SEZ, Noida F.NO.1/84/162/274/AM10-DES-V Clarification regarding fixation of wastage norms for HSD/Pet Coke. Decision: The Committee considered the case as per agenda and observed that O/o DC, SEZ, Noida has sought clarification regarding fixation of wastage norms for HSD & Pet Coke separately. It has been stated that HSD has been consumed for generation of electricity through DG sets and Pet Coke is procured locally and is used for running the boiler by making steam. However, there is no policy to permit fuel for generating power using DG Sets because these are not treated as Captive Power Plants under Central Electricity Authority Regulations. The Committee was of the clear view that Pet Coke used for running the boiler is not at all covered as General Note for fuel for generating electricity. However, Pet Coke may be an input in the manufacturing of Terry Towels for which detailed application as per ANF 4A is required for fixing norms. Hence, in any case, ‘HSD’ for generating power using DG sets cannot be included in General Note for fuel as these are not treated as Captive Power Plant under Central Electricity Authority Regulations etc. If the duty free import of fuel is to be allowed to the units having DG Sets in place of captive power plants, the proposal needs to be examined by Policy Division. However, in so far as EOU unit is concerned, Committee felt that Development Commissioner, SEZ may examine the case thoroughly and submit his comments to Norms Committee for taking final view in the matter. Development Commissioner, SEZ, Noida may be informed accordingly.
