We have re-reclamation of used oils plant, we re-claiming Used/Waste oils by using fraction distillation system. We are just evaporate the water and settle the carbons. We are adding any inputs not using packing materials for removal the same. We are not claiming any CENVAT Credit and not taking the excise duty from our customers. We sell our finished product as Re-claimed oil.
The dept. is claiming duty on our product as the heat using for fraction system so it is amounts to manufacturing.
Please let us say is it amounts to manufacturing or not. As per sec 2(f) it not manufacturing.
