COPY OF THE BOARD'S CIRCULAR NO. 602/39/2001-CX (F.NO.209/29/2001-CX.6) DATED 21^st NOVEMBER, 2001.

I am directed to say that representations have been received in the Board to allow merchant exporters to get export goods manufactured by another manufacturer/ processor under claim of rebate on duty paid on inputs under Notification No. 41/2001-Central Excise (N.T) dated 26^th June, 2001 on the lines of Circular No. 164/75/95-CX dated 18-12-95 and modify Para 8.2 of the Part-V of Chapter-8 of the Central Excise Manual (effective from 1-9-2001).

2. The Board has examined the matter and decided that status prior to 1-9-2001 shall be retained. Accordingly, it has been decided to allow rebate of duty paid on the inputs to merchant exporters where such inputs are used in the manufacture of export goods, directly cleared from the factory of the manufacturer/ processor and the name of the merchant exporter is mentioned on ARE-2 subject to fulfilment of other conditions prescribed in Notification No. 41/2001-Central Excise (N.T) dated 26^th June, 2001 in this behalf.

3. Para 8.2 of the Part-V of Chapter-8 of the Central Excise Manual (effective from 1-9-2001) stands modified to this effect.
