</blockquote>
</div>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">It was in October 2006 that Board had issued a draft circular on taxability of production of alcohol on behalf of the brand owners under Business Auxiliary Service. The draft circular which was issued two years ago remained as draft only. It was even removed from the CBEC website, as maybe they thought everybody had forgotten it. In <strong>DDT 915 </strong>, it was pointed out that <font color="#FF6633">“Nearly 20 months have passed since the draft circular was issued and the second birthday is fast approaching and the draft circular remained as draft so long. What happened to the responses? Has the Board forgotten the Circular? Or is the response from the Liquor lobby so strong that the file has been kept in the cold storage?” </font></font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The draft circular was finally removed from the cold storage and a final circular has been issued. The Board, in the final circular (Actually, it is only a letter but not a circular) has taken a diagonally opposite view and clarified that “ manufacture” of alcohol on behalf of Brand Owners is covered under Section 2(f) of the Central Excise Act and hence stands excluded from “Business Auxiliary Service” </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The logic behind the above view has been explained as: </font></p>
<div align="justify">
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">‘Manufacture' and ‘excisable goods' are two independent concepts and it is not necessary that a process amounting to manufacture within the meaning of section 2(f) should always result in emergence of an excisable goods and <em>vice versa </em>. (<font color="#FF6633">What does this <em>vice versa </em> imply? Can any excisable goods emerge without involving the process of manufacture under Central Excise Law?</font>) </font></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The case of production of alcoholic beverages, which qualifies to be a process amounting to manufacture within the meaning of section 2(f), when read with the relevant judicial pronouncements, because a new product, with a distinct name, character or use; and capable of being marketable, emerges. </font></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The exclusion provision under the definition of Business Auxiliary Service (under the Finance Act, 1994) makes a reference to a definition of the word ‘manufacture' figuring under another Act (i.e. The Central Excise Act, 1944). It is a settled law that when a definition from an Act is transposed into another Act, it is as if the said definition is physically written into the borrowing Act without any reference to the context of such definition in the Act from which it is being borrowed. Thus just because Central Excise Act does not extend to the manufacture or production of alcoholic beverages meant for human consumption, it cannot be said that the term ‘manufacture' used in Business Auxiliary Service would also not cover the process of making the said product, namely alcoholic beverages. </font></li>
</ul>
</div>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The confirmed demands have already reached Tribunal and in two cases, the CESTAT ordered pre-deposit having found a <em>prima facie </em> case in favour of the revenue <strong><a href="http://www.taxindiaonline.com/RC2/subCatDesc.php3?subCatDisp_Id=52&filename=legal/cestat/2008/2008-TIOL-1295-CESTAT-MUM.htm" target="_blank">2008-TIOL-1295-CESTAT-MUM</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.taxindiaonline.com/RC2/subCatDesc.php3?subCatDisp_Id=52&filename=legal/cestat/2008/2008-TIOL-1161-CESTAT-MUM.htm" target="_blank">2008-TIOL-1161-CESTAT-MUM.</a></strong> Now the advocates can simply place the Board's letter before the CESTAT and laugh their way to the Banks. </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">It has also been clarified that if the bottling units undertake only packing or labeling alone, such activity would fall within “its ambit” and would be charged to service tax.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">It is to be seen that the above activity of packing or labelling was held to be a taxable service under “Packaging Service” under Section 65(76)(b) of the Finance Act 1994 by the MP High Court in <strong><a href="http://www.taxindiaonline.com/RC2/subCatDesc.php3?subCatDisp_Id=43&filename=legal/hc/2006/2006-TIOL-268-HC-MP-ST.htm" target="_blank">2006-TIOL-268-HC-MP-ST</a></strong> which was also referred to in the Draft Circular. But now, as per the Board's letter, the same is taxable under Business Auxiliary Service. Well, what is the difference? Except for the fact that under BAS the revenue can get tax for the period prior to 16.5.2005, the date from which packaging service became taxable.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">It has also been clarified that if the distillery is taken on lease, (may be by the brand owner) the same is taxable under renting of immovable property service and if the Brand owner collects only fee for grant of permission to use the Brand with the property, risk and reward of the product rest with the manufacturer, in such cases, the amount received by the Brand Owner is taxable under “Intellectual Property service”. </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Normally wherever Brand Owner allows licensee to use brand name, they also ensure that the products manufactured by the licensee are as per the quality standards of BO- to protect the quality and brand image. To ensure this, the brand owner enters into a License Production Agreements –– and collects amounts for granting representational right to manufacture Brand Owner goods. Such License Production Agreements would fall under the category of Franchisee Service, about which the Board's letter is silent. It is only mentioning about IPR service, not franchisee service. </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Para 3.3 of the Board letter introduces a concept called ‘complete manufacture' but the definition under Section 2(f) mentions any process incidental of ancillary to the completion of a manufactured product would also cover under the definition of manufacture. Whether packing into bottles amounts to manufacture or not is again a debatable point. Packaging service (which includes labeling also as per definition) excludes from the purview of service tax if the process amounts to manufacture. It is every likely that the trade will take shelter under this clause arguing that ‘bottling' is an activity ancillary to manufacture (blending) to make the alcoholic liquors marketable. </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But again this important issue was clarified in a letter addressed to the Chief Commissioners and the Commissioners. When the draft circular was placed in public domain for eliciting the response from the so called stakeholders, is it not necessary that the information should also be provided to the stakeholders? Instead of a letter, why a public circular was not issued? </font></p>
