WHether excise duty is payable on jaggery? If yes, at what rate? I am asking this query specifically because lot of manufacturers are not paying excise duty on removal of jaggaery from their factory.

Excise duty is applicable at the rate of 12% on jaggery under chapter heading 17011310. SSI exemption is available to all unit upto the 1.5cr.
