Sir,
I am directed to refer to correspondence resting with the instructions contained in Boards Circular No. 03/2003-Customs, dated 14.01.2003 (F.No. 473/25/2002-LC) permitting re-export of the goods under Section 69 of the Customs Act, 1962 after extending the period of warehousing under Section 61 even after the expiry of initial or extended period of warehousing and also after the issued of demand notices u/s 72 of the Customs Act, 1962 to enable the importers to export the goods within the permitted extended period of warehousing. However, a doubt has arisen whether waiver of interest can be considered in respect of goods, which have been re-exported but not utilized / installed and commissioned due to certain defects as has been noticed after the clearance of the goods.
2. The matter has been examined further. It has now been decided that the request for waiver of interest in case of re-export of capital goods may be considered favourably, if on clearance, such goods could not be installed, commissioned and used due to the facts that the goods were found defective or sub-standard, and therefore unfit for usage.
3. Chief Commissioners are, therefore, requested to consider / decide such requests for waiver of interest in the light of Boards aforesaid decision in the matter. The contents of this Circular may be brought to the notice of the filed formations and the Trade under your jurisdictions.
4. This issues in continuation of Boards Circular under reference.
Yours faithfully,
