Boiler is covered under capital goods.
Capital goods assembled/manufactured at site and used in manufacturing of excisable goods, then u can avail benefit of notification no.67/95-CE dated 16.3.1995 as amended from time to time.
As per this notification "capital goods as defined in the Cenvat Credit Rules 2004, manufactured in a factory and used within the factory of production is exempted from duty.
This very matter was decided in the case of "ISGEC Covema Limited v. Commissioner - 2000 (121) E.L.T. 548 (Tribunal -Delhi_)
