CESTAT Allows Interest On Custom Duty Refund From Deposit Date To Refund Date

Live Law  

The Delhi Bench of Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal has allowed the 12% interest on custom duty refund from the deposit date to the refund date. The bench of Anil Choudhary has observed that the amount of deposit made during investigation or audit becomes pre-deposit ipso facto upon contest of the dispute or filing of the appeal, and the assessee is entitled to interest as per law from the date of deposit till the date of refund. It was observed that, as per Section 27A, interest is payable from the end of three months from the date of application of refund and allowed interest on refund on the amount of Rs.12,85,013, observing that the appellant was not entitled to interest on the amount adjusted towards fine. The court held that the appellant is entitled to a grant of interest under Section 129EE of the Customs Act for the period from the date of deposit till the date of refund.
