Introduction: -



This is most interesting remark we got on our article “Amendment on Cenvat on building material: Far from solutions” after the pronouncement of Larger Bench decision in case of Vandana Global Limited [2010-TIOL-624-CESTAT-DEL-LB]. In the aforesaid piece prepared by me along with Sukhvinder Kaur and Neetu Sukhwani, we have opined that after the amendment in the definition of “inputs”, the earlier cases will be decided in favour of manufacturers as the amendment is prospective and not retrospective. But our conclusion was wrong and Larger bench of Delhi Tribunal has given the decision in favour of Revenue. Then comes this interesting Comment. Comments from Readers of our website are always source of our inspiration. This remark has also prompted us to write this second piece on this subject in light of the latest larger bench decision.
