Power of Adjudication Revised for Additional Commissioners


CBEC has revised the monetary limit for adjudication for Additional Commissioners under section 11A and section 33 of the Central Excise Act, 1944.  They can now adjudicate the cases with a monetary limit from above Rs. 5 Lac and upto Rs. 50 Lac.  Earlier the limit was above Rs.20 Lac and upto Rs.50 Lac.  As a result of this amendment a uniform monetary limit i.e., above Rs. 5 Lac & upto Rs. 50 Lac has been fixed for both Additional Commissioners and the Joint Commissioners.
