15 January 2009 Whenever any exisable goods leaves the factory, duty is payable. Thus on principles, on this stock transfer duty is payable.
IF the goods leaving the factory are such that on which cenvat credit has been taken, it can cleared under those rules. However goods must return to the principal manufacturer. If the principal manufacturer want to pay duty from the premises, where goods are being sent, goods should be cleared after payment of duty, on which the receiver of goods may take credit.
