06 September 2016 Seetharaman Sir,
I agree with your opinion but our company consultant's logic is "Contractor is not manufacturing oil, only packing hnce process is not manufacturing". Can you give me any reference of case law, circulars etc...?
Anil Verma Sir,
Is your opinion based on above logic?

06 September 2016 Refer job work notification of excise(search google you will get it). No service tax applicable on job works in the nature of manufacturing process. Manufacturing work can be out sourced and excise duty is only payable on it not service tax.
