casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Supreme Court held that the measure of excise duty under Section 4 of the Central Excise Act, 1944 is not controlled solely by the nature of the levy (manufacture), and that value additions to goods prior to clearance can be included in determining the "transaction value" for duty assessment. The Court reconciled Bombay Tyre and Acer India by clarifying that while Section 4 operates independently, ancillary costs and charges enriching product value—such as packing, handling, marketing, and facility charges—are permissible inclusions in the taxable value under the amended 2000 definition, provided they maintain nexus with the character of the levy. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
