Therefore there is short fall in revenue.

COMMODITIES

Out of these top 10 commodities only 3 commodities are showing shortfall in revenue and the remaining seven commodities are showing positive growth in revenue upto October, 2014 as compared to October, 2013.

1) Motor Vehicles:- Net revenue in Current F.Y. is Rs. 486.36 Cr. as compared to Rs. 707.27 Cr. in F.Y.13-14 showing a shortfall of Rs. 220.91 Cr. i.e. 31.23%. Clearance of M/s. Mahindra & Mahindra Limited, Nasik’s quantity in current year is 58061 vehicles as compared to 64866 vehicles in last year showing a fall of 11.72%. Thus it may be seen that clearance quantity has fallen. Overall assessable value of domestic clearance in current year is Rs.3248.68 cr. as compared to Rs.3548.90 cr. in last F.Y. showing a fall of 9.24%. Total duty including cenvat in last F.Y was Rs. 961.10 cr. (PLA Rs.539.13 Cr. + Cenvat Rs.321.44 Cr.) as compared to Rs. 686.59 cr. (PLA Rs.321.44 Cr. + Cenvat Rs.365.15 Cr.) in current F.Y. showing a fall of 28.56%. Duty incidence, which is total duty divided by total assessable value, is 21.13% in current F.Y. as compared to 27.08% in last F.Y. PLA percentage is 46.82% as compared to 56.10% in last F.Y. Further, duty incidence has also fallen due to adverse change in product mix having more vehicles of lower duty rate of 8%(12% last year) which is 17618 vehicles as compared to 6050 vehicles last year, as compared to (20% and 24%) (Last year 24% and 30% rated vehicles) which is 37179 vehicles as compared to 46610 vehicles last year. On account of adverse product mix in terms of duty rate, PLA percentage has also fallen. The assessee manufactures Xylo, Bolero, Scorpio, Verito, Vibe, Quanto and Bolero-BMT brands of vehicles. Of these, Xylo, Bolero and Scorpio, being big vehicles, attract 24% (last year 30% BED), Verito attracts 20% (last year 24%) and the small vehicles like Vibe, Bolero-BMT and Quanto attract 8% (last year12%) BED. Production and Clearance of Vibe, Bolero-BMT and Quanto had increased at cost of big vehicles. The clearance quantity of vehicles attracting rate of duty of 8% (last year12%) has increased by 11568, whereas for vehicles attracting duty 20% (last year @ 24%) & 24% (last year 30%) has decreased by 9431. Further in interim budget of 2014-15 (in Feb.2014) the duty rate of small vehicles has been reduced from 12% to 8% and bigger vehicles from 24% / 30% to 20% / 24%. The shortfall in respect of M/s Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd Satpur, Nasik is Rs.217.69 cr.

2. Machinery: - There is decrease in PLA Revenue by Rs. 44.26 Crores in this commodity. The main reason of shortfall of revenue in PLA is that there is reduction in Excise duty from 12.36% to 10.30% in the Budget 2014-15. Moreover one unit viz. M/s Tata Hitachi Constructions Equipment Co. Ltd. was transferred to the LTU Banglore in the month of Aug-2013. Before shifting to Banglore the said unit has paid Rs. 5 Crores in 2013-14 which has also affected in shortfall in revenue.

3. Electrical Machinery: - There is decrease in PLA Revenue by Rs. 43.38 Crores in this commodity. The main reason of shortfall of revenue in PLA is that there is reduction in Excise duty from 12.36% to 10.30% in the Budget 2014-15. The major units of this commodity have witnessed decrease in clearances due weak market condition to which the PLA revenue has gone down.

Brief revenue analysis with special reference to major assessees and commodities

COMMISSIONERATE-WISE REVENUE ANALYSIS:

The Commissionerate-wise analysis indicating the major factors affecting revenue is given below: -

8 (A) BANGALORE — I COMMISSIONERATE

The Revenue Target of the Commissionerate for the financial year 2014-15 is fixed at Rs.845 Crores. The gross revenue collected upto the month of October 2014 is Rs.440.42 Crores and the cash refund sanctioned/paid upto the month is Rs.90.25 Crores. Thereby, the net revenue collected by the Commissionerate upto October 2014 is Rs.350.17 Crores. The net revenue collected during the corresponding period of the previous financial year was Rs.393.06 Crores. The revenue figures have been reconciled with NSDL data base and the cash refunds have been reconciled with PAO figures.

The analysis of the revenue is as follows:

A. COMMISSIONERATE’s REVENUE FOR THE YEAR 2014-15

Table I (Total Revenue upto October, 2013) (Rs. In Crore)

|PLA |CENVAT |TOTAL |

|For October, 2013 |Upto October, 2013 |For October, 2013 |Upto October, 2013 |For October, 2013 |Upto October, 2013 |

|51.29 |393.06 |301.09 |1792.88 |352.83 |2185.94 |

Table II (Total Revenue upto October, 2014)

(Rs. In Crore)

|PLA |CENVAT |TOTAL |

|For October, 2014 |Upto October, 2014 |For October, 2014 |Upto October, 2014 |For October, 2014 |Upto October, 2014 |

|39.93 |350.17 |241.82 |2042.65 |281.75 |2392.82 |

As could be seen from the above tables:

i. The overall duty (PLA+Cenvat) of the Commissionerate upto the month of October, 2014 has shown an increasing trend. The overall duty has increased from Rs.2185.94 Crores to Rs.2392.82 Crores resulting in an increase of Rs.206.88 Crores (9.46%).

ii. The revenue realization in PLA upto October, 2014 has shown a decreasing trend. The PLA payment has decreased from Rs.393.06 Crores realized upto October, 2013 to Rs.350.17 Crores realized upto October, 2014 i.e., decreased by Rs.42.89 Crores (-10.91%).

iii. Duty paid through CENVAT upto October, 2014 is showing an increasing trend compared to the same period of the previous financial year. Duty paid through CENVAT upto October, 2014 is Rs.2042.65 Crores compared to Rs. 1792.88 Crores paid during the same period of the previous financial year, resulting in an increase of Rs.249.77 Crores (13.93%).

The reasons for decrease in PLA revenue are as under :

I. The Commissionerate had realised PLA revenue of Rs.32.70 Cr., upto the month of May 2013 from Tobacco Sector (Gutkha). Consequent to the Karnataka State Government imposing ban on manufacture and sale of Gutkha in the state vide Order dated 30.05.2013 issued by the Food Safety Commissioner, Karnataka all the units under this sector stopped their manufacturing activity and there was no revenue from this sector w.e.f 01.06.2013. The revenue loss from this sector during the current financial year upto October 2014 on account of this is Rs.32.70 Cr.

II. M/s.Tata Motors Pvt. Ltd., [manufacturer of Parts of Motor Vehicles] who opted for LTU, Mumbai during October 2013 had paid PLA revenue of Rs.1.27 Cr. upto October 2013, whereas, there is no revenue during the current financial year. Thereby, the revenue loss upto October 2014 on account of this unit shifting to LTU, Mumbai is Rs.1.27 Cr.

III. M/s.Manjushree Technopack Pvt. Ltd., [manufacturer of plastic performs and bottles] opted for LTU, Bangalore during October, 2013. This unit had paid PLA revenue of Rs.5.02 Cr. upto October 2013 and there is no revenue from this unit during the current financial year. Hence, the revenue loss upto October 2014 is Rs.5.02 Cr.

IV. M/s.Manjushree Technopack Ltd., Unit-2 who also moved to LTU, Bangalore as a group unit during October 2013 had paid PLA revenue of Rs.1.84 Cr. upto October 2013. However, there is no revenue for this unit during the current year and thereby the revenue deficit from this unit upto October 2014 is Rs.1.84 Cr.

V. M/s BEML, K.G.F. opted to LTU, Bangalore during April 2014. They had paid PLA revenue of Rs.6.33 Cr. upto October 2013. However, there is no revenue from this unit during the current year and thereby the revenue loss from this unit upto October 2014 is Rs.6.33 Cr.

VI. M/s BEML, Bangalore, who also moved to LTU, Bangalore as a group unit during April 2014, had paid PLA revenue of Rs.4.45 Cr. Upto October 2013. However, there is no revenue from this unit during the current year and thereby the revenue deficit from this unit upto October 2014 is Rs.4.45 Cr.

VII. The loss of revenue on account of above factors during the current financial year upto October 2014 is Rs.51.61 Cr.

VIII. Due to curbing of cash refund / rebate sanctions during the end of the previous financial year and keeping the claims pending, there is an increase in the sanctions of refund / rebate claims during the current financial year. The total refund and rebate sanctioned / paid in cash upto the month of October 2014 is Rs.90.25 Cr. as against Rs.77.13Cr. sanctioned during the corresponding period of the previous financial year. Thereby, there is an increase of Rs.13.12 Cr. (17.01%) cash outflow during the current financial year upto October 2014, and this has impacted the net revenue of the Commissionerate to that extent.

IX. Also there is loss of revenue on account of downward revision of duty in respect of a few goods falling under Chapter 84, 85 and 87, w.e.f. 17.02.2014.

Thus, the above reasons have contributed to short fall in PLA revenue to the extent of Rs.64.73 Crore. Therefore, a net short fall of Rs.42.89 Crore in PLA upto October 2014 in the Commissionerate is on account of said reasons.

REVENUE ANALYSIS OF MAJOR UNITS:

The top 10 units of the Commissionerate have contributed Rs.120.30 Crores upto October, 2014 as against of Rs.119.80 Crores during the corresponding period of the last financial year, thereby registering a marginal increase in revenue by Rs.0.50 Crores (0.42%). The gross revenue from other units is Rs.320.12 Crores upto October, 2014, as against Rs.350.40 Crores realized upto October, 2013, thereby registering a decrease in revenue by Rs.30.28 Crores (-8.64%).

I. M/s.Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd., : The assessee are the manufacturers of Two wheelers falling under chapter 87 of the CETA, 1985. The revenue realized from this unit upto October, 2014 is Rs.4.21Crores. The unit started their commercial production and clearance during July 2013 and hence there was duty payment of only Rs.3.01 Crores in PLA upto October 2013. The unit has manufactured 916,575 Nos. of two wheelers during the current financial year upto October 2014 as compared to 259,942 Nos. manufactured upto October 2013, which is an increase by 656,633 Nos.

II. M/s.Dhariwal Industries: The assessees are the manufacturers of Pan Masala without Tobacco and functioning under Compounded levy scheme pertaining to Pan Masala (Capacity Determination and Collection of Duty) Rules, 2008. They were previously manufacturing Gutkha, but stopped production of the same consequent to the imposing of ban on manufacture and sale of Gutkha w.e.f. 30.05.2013 by the Karnataka State Government. They had paid duty on Gutkha during the months of April, 2013 and May, 2013. The duty paid in PLA by the assessee upto October, 2014 is Rs.35.74 Crores as against Rs.24.27 Crores paid during the same period of the last financial year, registering an increase in revenue by Rs.11.47Crores [47.26%]. The increase in PLA revenue is due to (a) increase in rate of duty per machine in respect of Sada Pan Masala during the budget in July 2014 and (b) increase in MRP of Sada Pan Masala by the unit, which attracts higher rate of duty.

III. M/s.Associate Decor Ltd.: The assessees are the manufacturers of Laminated Paper Board falling under chapter 48 of the CETA, 1985. The revenue realized from this unit upto October, 2014 is Rs.15.45 Crores as against Rs.10.67 Crores upto October, 2013, resulting in an increase of Rs.4.78 Crores (44.80%). The production during the current fiscal upto October 2014 is 9,596,388 M2 as against 7,871,937 M2 during the corresponding period of the previous financial year, which is an increase by 7,871,937 M2 (21.91%). The home clearance during the current financial year upto October 2014 is 10,118,089 M2 as against 7,603,663 M2 during the corresponding period of the previous financial year, which as increase by 2,514,426 M2 (33.07%).

The production during the current fiscal upto October 2014 is 5136516 units as against 5304063 units during the corresponding period of the previous financial year. The home clearance during the current financial year upto October 2014 is 4855537 units as against 5196150 units during the corresponding period of the previous financial year. Therefore, there is decrease in production and decrease in clearance by 3.15% and 6.56% respectively. There is an upward movement in the price of their commodity and thus their value of clearance has increased during the current financial year, resulting in higher PLA payment.

V. M/s.R.M.Dhariwal : The assessee are the manufacturers of Jarda scented tobacco / chewing tobacco and functioning under Compounded levy scheme pertaining to Pan Masala (Capacity Determination and Collection of Duty) Rules, 2008. The assessee has paid an amount of Rs.15.86 Crores in PLA upto October 2014 as against Rs.3.85 Crores revenue during the same period of the last financial year registering an increase in PLA revenue by Rs.12.01 Crores (311.95%). The huge increase in revenue during the current financial year is due to (a) increase in number of machines (b) increase in rate of duty per machine in respect of chewing tobacco during the budget in July 2014 and (c) increase in MRP by the unit, which attracts higher rate of duty.

VI. M/s.The Tata Power Co. Ltd., : The assessee are the manufacturers of Electronic Modules for AAFL and LBW, Akash Air Force Launcher, Sub System for Lakshya & Encoder and decoder unit etc. falling under Chapter Heading 85371000 and 93019000 of the CETA, 1985. The assessee have paid Rs.5.61 Crore revenue during the current year upto October, 2014 and paid Rs.2.93 crore upto October 2013 of the previous financial year resulting in increase of Rs.2.68 Crores(91.47%). Akash Air Force Launcher is manufactured by the assessee only on receipt of orders and is not being cleared every month. The sales pattern shows huge variation, mainly because these products have to be successfully tested before clearance. Hence, the clearances may or may not take place every month.

The following unit have registered negative growth upto October, 2014:

I. M/s. SKF India Ltd: The assessee are the manufacturers of Ball / Roller Bearings falling under Chapter heading 84821011 of CETA, 1985. The revenue realized from this unit upto October, 2014 is Rs.14.16 Crores, as compared to Rs.20.66 Crores paid during the corresponding period of the previous financial year, resulting in a shortfall of revenue by Rs.6.50 Crore [-31.46%]. Also there is a increase in utilization of Cenvat credit by Rs.0.42 Cr. (-2.09%) upto the month of October 2014 of the current financial year as compared to the corresponding period of the previous financial year. Their production during the current year upto October 2014 has increased by 7,187,770 units from 37,727,011 units upto October 2013 to 44,914,781 units upto October 2014. Their home clearance has decreased by 211,098 units from 38,085,682 units upto October 2013 to 37,874,584 units upto October 2014. Further, there is a decrease in rate of duty from 12% to 10% w.e.f. 17.02.2014 during the interim budget. Decrease in clearance & decrease in rate of duty has resulted in overall shortfall of duty payment during the current financial year upto October 2014.

II. M/s.S.M. Perfumers: They are the manufacturers of Pan Masala [without containing Nicotine or Tobacco] and Chewing Tobacco and functioning under Compounded levy scheme pertaining to Pan Masala (Capacity Determination and Collection of Duty) Rules, 2008. The assessees were previously manufacturing Gutkha, but owing to the ban imposed by the Karnataka State Government on manufacture and sale of Gutkha w.e.f. 30.05.2013, they stopped their production. Starting from October 2013 they began manufacture of Pan Masala [without containing Nicotine or Tobacco] and Chewing Tobacco. The revenue realized upto October, 2014 is Rs.6.99 Crores as compared to Rs.21.01 Crores realized during the previous financial year, registering a decrease of Rs.14.02 Crores [-66.73%]. The decrease in revenue is since the duty payable per machine in respect of Sada Pan Masala is much lesser in comparison to Gutkha.

III. M/s. Chloride Alloys India Ltd: The unit is into manufacture of articles of Lead viz., Unwroughten Lead falling under Chapter 78 of CETA, 1985.

Though there is an increase in production and clearance during the current financial year upto October 2014 by 5.40 % and 4.87 % respectively, the decrease in duty payment is due to excess availment and utilization of cenvat credit. They have availed and utilized cenvat credit of Rs.58.04 Crores in the current year as against Rs.48.71 Crores in the corresponding period of the previous year, which is an increase by Rs.6.03 Crores (67.03%). They are mainly supplying lead ingots to M/s.Exide Battery.

IV. M/s.Ashirwad Pipes Pvt. Ltd., : The assessee are the manufacturers of PVC Pipes and PVC fittings falling under Chapter 39 of CETA, 1985. The revenue realized from this unit upto October, 2014 is Rs.6.30 Crore as compared to Rs.12.18 Crores paid upto October, 2013 registering a decrease of Rs.5.88 Crore [-48.28%]. Also, they have availed and utilized cenvat credit of Rs.82.13 Crores in the current year as against Rs.60.73 Crores in the corresponding period of the previous year due to accumulation of cenvat, (increase of 21.40 Crores at 35.24%) which has added to the decrease in PLA payment. The sale of their products is seasonal and based on rainfall. Presently, there is more demand for their products from Tamil Nadu. The production of PVC Pipes during the current year upto October 2014 is 26,044,727 Mtrs. as against 24,836,334 Mtrs. during the corresponding period of the previous financial year and their clearance during the current year upto October 2014 is 27,549,200 Mtrs. as against 27,082,603 Mtrs. during the corresponding previous period. There is an increase by 4.87% in production and increase by 1.72% in clearance during the current year. However, the decrease in PLA payment and increase in cenvat debits during the current year upto October 2014 is due to cenvat accumulation.

8(B) BANGALORE-II COMMISSIONERATE

Revenue:- The budget estimate for the Commissionerate for the FY 2014-15 has been fixed at Rs. 5393 Crs. as compared to previous year’s sanctioned budget estimate of Rs. 4420.00 Crs. However, during the previous FY 2013-14, the Commissionerate realised the total revenue of Rs. 4082.77 Crs only, therefore, the Chief Commissioner, Bangalore Zone has been requested to reconsider the target and fix a realistic one, as to achieve a growth of 32% above the last FY realized amount seems unrealistic. The Gross revenue collected up to October 2014 is Rs. 2280.42 Crs. and the refund sanctioned and accounted by PAO upto the month is Rs. 45.44 Crs. Therefore, the net revenue collected upto October 2014 is Rs. 2234.98 Crs. The net revenue collected for the corresponding period of last year was Rs. 2197.17 Crs. (after deducting the refund amount of Rs. 35.83 Crs.) hence showing a positive growth of Rs 37.82 Crs. upto October 2014.

NOTE:- M/s. ITC LTD had deposited an advance amount of Rs 60.03 Crs. in the month of March 2014 which they intended to utilize for making future payment of duty for clearances of excisable goods during the current financial year 2014-15. As such, during April, 2014, M/s. ITC Ltd., Bangalore, have utilized Rs. 60.03 Crs. for making payment of duty and debited the same in their ER-1 returns filed online through ACES. While generating the Commissionerate’s revenue for the month of April 2014 through NSDL, it was noticed that there is a short fall of about Rs. 60.03 Crs. in the NSDL data in comparison to Monthly Revenue Report (MRR) generated from ACES. Since, the said amount of Rs. 60.03 Crs. has already been accounted for in the previous financial year i.e, 2013-14, there is a continued deficit in the NSDL when compared with MRR ACES figures. The said fact has been reported as a note in this Commissionerate’s FMR for the earlier months of the current FY from April 2014 to September 2014 and the same has been rectified in this month also.

A separate reference has been made to the Additional Director General, DDM with request to effect necessary reconciliation in this Commissionerate’s revenue data.

ITC Ltd., who manufactures cigarettes and it pays approx. 83% of the total revenue of the Commissionerate. The revenue of M/s ITC Ltd., upto October 2014 is Rs. 1898.40 Crs. as against Rs. 1859.01 Crs. realized upto October 2013, resulting in increase of Rs. 39.39 Crs. (i.e. 2.12%). The increase in the PLA payment of M/s. ITC Ltd. is due to increase in rate of duty., M/s. Grasim Industries Ltd. and M/s. Birla Super Bulk Terminal, the second & third top most units in respect of PLA payment of the Commissionerate have also contributed approximately Rs. 17 Crs. more as compared to corresponding period of the previous year.

VSN Products: - M/s VSN Products who have paid an amount of Rs 21.16 Crs. up to the October’13 in respect of Gutkha clearances has paid merely Rs. 12.52 Crs upto Oct, 2014 for Pan Masala clearances as the manufacture and sale of Gutkha is banned in Karnataka w.e.f. 01.06.2013. Hence, no more revenue from Gutkha is expected. Further, low revenue from Pan Masala category is due to the reason that during the previous FY upto October’13, Four (4) units were functioning with total 17 No of machines whereas during October 2014, only Three (3) units are functioning with only 05 machines. Hence, even increase in rate of duty in case of Pan Masala has not resulted positively.

II. M/s. Siddu Packaging Ltd: - The unit manufactures Gutka and has paid Revenue to the extent of Rs. 8.12 Crs. up to October 2013, as against merely Rs. 3.68 Crs. upto October, 2014, resulting a decline in PLA to the extent of 54.68%. The revenue has come down on account of decrease in production and clearance on account of ban on Gutka products by the Food Safety Commissioner, Government of Karnataka vide Order dated 30.05.2013. However the unit had started manufacturing Pan Masala without tobacco. Since the demand as well as the duty on Pan-masala is less than that of Gutkha, the revenue has been affected adversely.

Federal Moghul Goetze have paid Revenue in PLA to the extent of merely Rs. 0.32 Cr. upto October 14, whereas previous year upto October 13, the unit had paid Rs. 8.75 Crs., thereby registering a sharp decrease in revenue to the extent of Rs. 8.43 Crs.(96.34%). Assessee manufactures Pistons for Motor Vehicles. Last year, the assessee has cleared Pistons for bigger vehicles 17608928 Nos and this year they have cleared 14363725 Nos. for smaller Vehicles and hence the value and duty has decreased drastically.

IV. Auma India Pvt Ltd :- The unit has paid duty of Rs. 3.95 Crs. up to October 2013 whereas in the current year up to October 2014, they have paid duty of Rs. 1.97 Crs. only in PLA, resulting a negative growth rate of 50%. Duty in PLA is less because of downward trend in Power Projects as the assessee who have cleared 10146 Nos Actuators upto October 2013, could clear only 8362 Actuators and has paid Rs. 2 Crs. Less upto October, 2014 as compared to corresponding period of last year.

This unit has contributed 2.22% of total Commissionerate revenue of Rs. 520.13 Cr in 2013-14. This unit has paid NIL revenue through PLA upto October 2014 as against Rs. 11.57 crores during the corresponding period of the previous year, thereby decrease of Rs 11.57 crores (-100%) in PLA compared to last year. The duty is being paid under compounded levy scheme. The unit has surrendered the registration hence the duty from this unit is NIL. Another unit with same name M/s Geluvu Food Products has started production of Jarda and Pan Masala without tobacco in December, 2013-14. The new unit had paid Rs 4.79 Cr in PLA upto March 2014. Decrease in PLA compared to last year is due to less number of machines operating and ban on Gutkha in Karnataka with effect from 1st October 2013. In 2013-14, the new unit had shifted to the production of jarda and pan masala without tobacco which attracts less duty. This unit has paid Rs 7.59 Cr in PLA upto October 2014 in 2014-15.

II. BHARAT FRITZ WERNER LTD - They are the manufacturers of Capital goods for their Customers, i.e., CNC Machineries ranging from Rs.5.00 Lakhs to Rs.5.00 Crores, falling under Chapter 84. The unit has contributed revenue of 2.48% of total Commissionerate revenue of Rs. 520.13 Cr in 2013-14. The unit was paying duty @ 10 % (BED), 2% (EC) & 1% (SHE) i.e normal rate of duty. This unit has paid Rs 3.7 crore in PLA upto October 2014 as against Rs 7.23 crores during the corresponding period of previous year, thereby decrease of Rs 3.53 crores (48.8%) in PLA compared to the last year. The unit has paid Rs 16.64 Crores in Cenvat upto October 2014 compared to Rs 13.39 Cr in Cenvat upto October 2013 showing more utilization of Cenvat in this financial year by 24%. Consequent on budgetary changes, rate of duty on items falling under Chapter 84, is decreased to 10.3% against 12.36% whereas the excise duty on inputs is 12.36%, hence there is more accumulation and utilization of cenvat credit. The current revenue trend shows the gloomy picture of the industry

III. M/S WIPRO ENTERPRISES LTD:- The unit is the manufacturer of Hydraulic Cylinders being used in JCBs which are in turn used in Construction Industry. In other words, the Revenue of the said assessee depends up on the Construction Industry. The unit has contributed a revenue of 30.99% of total Commissionerate revenue of Rs. 520.13 Cr upto the month. The unit was paying duty @ 12% (BED), 2% (EC) & 1% (SHE) i.e normal rate of duty. The unit has paid Rs 8.39 Cr in PLA and Rs 31.09 Cr in Cenvat in 2013-14 thus gained a position in top 10 units of this commissionerate. This unit has paid Rs 0.18 Cr in PLA up to October 2014 as against Rs 2.38 Cr paid up to October 2013. Regading cenvat payment, the unit has paid Rs 16.47 Cr upto October 2014 against Rs 18.61 Cr paid upto October 2013 in the previous financial year. Till now in the current financial year, this unit is showing negative trend. Now that there is an encouraging budget for Construction Industry from Income Tax, the assessee is hoping for some positive response from the market. However, as could be seen from C Ex rate, the goods manufactured by them fall under the Chapter 84 and the rate of duty is 10.30% whereas the rate of duty for the raw materials they buy is @ 12.36% thereby there is accumulation of Cenvat credit and the same is being used for payment of duty. Further, the said rate of duty will be continued till December 2014, which means that the trend of accumulation of Cenvat Credit will continue for three quarters of the fiscal year 2014-15 which may not help to collect more revenue as for as the Government Revenue is concerned.

IV. TRIVENI TURBINE:- The unit is engaged in the manufacture of steam turbines and spares falling under Chapter 84. The said unit has contributed revenue of 1.31% of total commissionerate revenue of Rs. 520.13 Cr in 2013-14. The unit is paying duty @ 10 % (BED), 2% (EC) & 1% (SHE) i.e normal rate of duty.

Taking the total duty payment including both Cenvat and PLA, there is downtrend of revenue. However, PLA payment is positive marginally upto the month. The main reason is that the assessee is the manufacturers of the goods which are used in mega power projects and at present there is not much of scope for such projects. However, during the present budget, there is some scope for establishing new power projects as the Central Government is emphasizing more on Power, Housing and Infrastructure Industry. The assessee being the manufacturer of capital goods and excise duty on these goods is 10.3%, whereas the excise duty on their inputs is 12.36% which leads to accumulation of cenvat credit. It is emphasized here that the projects taken up by the assessee lasts from three months to one year depending upon the capacity of the steam turbines.

V. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LTD (ELECTRONICS DIVISION) – The unit is engaged in the manufacture of static converter, electric supply meter parts, semi conductor device, solar photo voltaic etc. The unit has contributed revenue of 6.40% of total Commissionerate revenue of Rs. 520.13 Cr in 2013-14.

Brief revenue analysis with special reference to major assessees and commodities

Commodity wise revenue analysis (As per Ministry’s letter F. No.96/50/2012-CX 1 dated 21.12.2012)

Decrease in revenue is noticed in the major commodities like (i) Petroleum Products and (ii) Tyres and Tubes / Other Rubber Products. Reasons for the same have been examined as detailed below:

1. Petroleum Products: This is the major product which contributes more than 90% to the total Zonal Revenue. M/s. BPCL, Cochin Refinery is the producer of the commodity. There is a decrease in revenue of Rs. 104 Crores from this unit upto the period of October, 2014 compared to the previous year. This is due to the increased usage of Cenvat Credit ie. Rs. 98 Crores more compared to the same period in previous year is the reason for the negative growth.

2. Tyres & Tubes / Other Rubber Products: Major producer of Tyres and Tubes is M/s. Apollo Tyres factories at Kalamassery and Thrissur. They are producing Bias Tyres for commercial vehicles. The Indian market share of Bias Tyres is decreasing due to more use of Radial Tyres and it lead to increase in export. Cenvat credit usage has also increased from these units.

Brief revenue analysis with special reference to major assessees and commodities

The POL Revenue upto the month is Rs 2394.26 Cr as against Rs 2271.71 Cr in the last Financial Year, showing a positive growth of 5.39% (Rs 122.54 Cr). The reasons for such increase in revenue are as given hereunder.

➢ M/s HPCL of Visakhapatnam-I Commissionerate, who contributed 51% of the zonal revenue during 2013-14 have contributed Rs. 2235.81 Cr upto the month of 2014-15 against Rs 2091.02 Cr paid during the same period last year resulting in an increase of 6.92% (144.79 Cr). This is due to increase in the quantity cleared from the unit during the month when compared to same period last year. They have paid Rs.299.95 Cr during the current month as against Rs.272.73 Cr paid during the same month last year.

➢ The remaining revenue under POL in this Zone comes in the form of Cess on Crude Oil from two Producers (Assessees) Viz. M/s ONGC, Rajahmundry and M/s Cairn Energy Limited, S Yanam of Visakhapatnam-II Commissionerate. The revenue upto the month in this financial year 2014-15 is Rs 114.36 Cr as against Rs 134.42 Cr paid in the same period of the previous financial year resulting in a decrease of 14.92% (-20.06 Cr). This is due to the fact that the Oil wells have entered into natural decline phase like any other typical oil field and in that declining phase the water cut increases resulting in decrease of crude oil production.

Though the revenue of Cess on Crude Oil is less when compared to the last year, due to buoyant revenue from M/s. HPCL on RD Oil, Petroleum Gases & Other gaseous hydrocarbons during the current month the POL revenue is on positive side. Though the production was hampered due to Hudhud Cyclone in M/s. HPCL in the month of October, 2014, due to increase in quantity of clearances and increase in rate of duty, the revenue is on higher side.

3. The Non- POL Revenue upto the month of the current financial year 2014-15 is Rs 1583.28 Cr as against Rs 1767.42 Cr collected during the same period of the previous financial year resulting in a decrease of Rs 184.14 Cr or -10.42%. The commodity wise reasons for shortfall are as under.

➢ Cement is the first major commodity of NON-POL group of Zone which contributed 15 % of the total revenue and 33.65% of the Non POL revenue of the Zone during the financial year 2013-14. An amount of Rs 648.82 Cr has been realized upto the month in the financial year 2014-15 as against Rs 585.52 Cr collected during the same period in the previous financial year. The PLA Collections have gone up marginally by 10.81% (63.30 Cr) in respect of this commodity upto the month. The majority of the Cement Units are situated in Tirupathi and Guntur Commissionerates. The reasons for increase in revenue are due to increase in the quantity cleared when compared to the same period last year (last year there was Samaikyandhra Agitation going on in the state at the current time and it impacted on the working of the factories resulting in decrease in revenue).

➢ IRON AND STEEL is the second major commodity of NON-POL group of the Zone which contributed 14.47% of the total Revenue of the Non POL revenue of the Zone during the financial year 2013-14. An amount of Rs 479.55 Cr. has been realized through PLA payment upto the month of 2014-15 against Rs 507.86 Cr realized during the same period of previous financial year showing a decrease in revenue (-28.31 Cr or -5.57%). The main reason for such decrease is due to decrease in PLA payments by M/s. RINL to the tune of Rs 63.26 Cr (-14.65%). They have paid Rs. 368.61 Cr upto the month in 2014-15 as against Rs 431.87 Cr paid during the corresponding period last year. This is due to decrease in the value of home clearances from Rs. 6068 Cr to Rs. 5714 Cr during the current year. Further, Cenvat utilization has gone up by 2.81% (Rs.9.77 Cr) due to increase in value of exports from 499 Cr to 637 Cr during the current year (A Qty of 203840 MT was exported during last year when compared to 229845 MT exported during the current year) and also due to availability of more Capital Goods Credit. As regards to the other unit M/s ESSAR STEEL INDIA LIMITED, the shortfall is Rs. 115.61 Cr upto the month in 2014-15 when compared to the same period last year due to high cenvat utilization. The unit has paid Rs. 49.60 Cr upto the month as against Rs. 165.21 Cr paid during the same period last year in PLA. In respect of Cenvat, they have paid Rs.166.60 Cr upto the month as against Rs. 47.84 Cr paid during the same period last year (Increase in Cenvat Utilisation +118.76 Cr or +248.24%). This is due to receipt of duty suffered Iron Ore concentrate as input and utilisation of Cenvat Credit for duty payment during the current financial year compared to utilisation of non-duty paid Iron Ore during the last year.

4. Electrical & Non-Electrical Machinery have shown a negative growth of 62.21%. An amount of Rs 39.97 Cr only has been realized upto the month in 2014-15 as against Rs 105.77 Cr collected during the same period in the previous year 2013-14 (decrease of Rs 65.80 Cr).

REVENUE ANALYSIS OF MAJOR COMMODITIES (UPTO OCTOBER ’14)

Among major commodities, Cement, Electrical and Non Electrical Machinery, Rubber Products and Tobacco Products have shown negative trend. The reasons for the shortfall for the commodities showing negative trend are furnished below:

(1) CEMENT:

The major revenue yielding commodity for this Zone is Cement, contributing 29% of the total revenue. Revenue realized in Cash from Cement upto the month of October 2014 is Rs.317.82 Crs. as compared to the revenue of Rs. 405.04 Crs. last year (up to month of October 2013) showing a decrease of Rs. 87.23 Crs. (-22%). The Cenvat credit utilization upto the month is Rs.224.86 Crs. as compared to last year’s utilization of Rs.209.22 Crs. showing an increase of Rs.15.64 Crs. (+7%). During the year 2013-14, upto October 2013, the home clearance was 14980803 MTs whereas the home clearance is only 14429032 MTs. during the corresponding period this year, thereby showing a decrease of 551771 MTs. Hence, lesser home clearances, lull in market conditions and less clearance to industrial and institutional buyers have contributed for the lesser Revenue realisation.

(2) ELECTRICAL & NON ELECTRICAL MACHINERY:

The Revenue upto October ’14 was Rs.88.05 Crs. (non-electrical Rs.73.06 Crs. and electrical Rs.14.86 Crs.) as against the Revenue of Rs.181.99 Crs. for the period upto October ’13, showing a decrease of Rs.93.94 Crs. (-52%). The non electrical machinery has shown a decrease of Rs.85.66 Crs.(-54%), and electrical machinery has shown a decrease of Rs.8.31 Crs. (-36%). One of the reason for the short fall of Revenue realisation from this commodity is due to change in the duty structure from 12% to 10% w.e.f. 17.02.2014 for the commodities under the Chapters 84 and 85. The major contributor to this commodity is M/s. BHEL, Trichy and they lacks new orders this year.

(iv) M/s Numaligarh Refinery Ltd. was shutdown for annual repairing & maintenance from 26th March-2014 to 14th April-2014.

➢ After issuance of the Circular No. 978/2/2014-CX dated 07.01.2014, all crude oil and Tea sector have stopped payment of Edu. Cess and Secondary and Higher Edn. Cess.
