I think it may be served your purpose:
SCOPE OF INDIRECT TAX AUDIT
· Non-availment of short/excess availment of Export Incentives.
· Goods imported duty with free or payment at concessional rates, subject to conditions classified incorrectly or without complying with the conditions.
· Transfer Pricing issues.
· Applicability of central excise and availability of exemption on the activity and the products.
· The valuation of goods not removed in normal course using valuation methods not in line with the central excise valuation rules.
· The utilization of goods procured on concessional duty for specific uses/for general uses.
· The availing of inadmissible cenvat credit and mis-utilisation of credit.
· The passing on of duty suffered on imported goods and of locally manufactured goods in excess of actuals.
· The structural rigidity built into the method of production or marketing and distribution.
· The authorization levels of the indirect tax function, not specifically set out in line with general authorization for the organization.
· Procedural non compliance which could lead to demands and losing of benefits.
· The liability under service tax on services provided being ignored.
