We make provision for slow moving stocks in books of account every month as per our group accounting policy. Provision for slow movers is determined based on the turnover of the components and finished goods. Stock for which we make provision are good stocks (not obselete) and can be sold in the market very well. To comply with the group accounting standards we are making provision for slow moving stocks on the monthly basis.
Now the question is applicablility of Rule 3(5B) of Cenvat Credit Rules 2004.
1) Do we need to expunge the full amount of input cenvat credit taken on the inputs for which provision has been made? Is there any such requirement under Cenvat Credit Rules.
2) If there is any requirement for reversal of Cenvat Credit on such stocks where provision have been made then how to determine the duty amount for Finished Goods.
