ACES USER MANUAL CE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

1 Introduction CE Dispute Resolution


This document describes the Dispute Resolution process in totality. Dispute may arise as a result of non- payment or short payment of duties and noncompliance with the procedural requirements of law/ rules e.g. nonsubmission of periodic returns within the prescribed time limit. There can also be another category of cases, which are miscellaneous in nature such as claims for remission of duty on goods damaged or destroyed; transit loss on warehoused goods; rebate claims on goods exported etc., that may result in disputes. Events that may trigger off a dispute are diverse. A Range Officer may detect short payment at the time of scrutiny of returns/ review and correction of Returns or these may come to light when an Assessee is subjected to audit by the Department. Specific information leading to search, seizure of goods by the Preventive or Anti-Evasion outfit can also initiate the dispute resolution process. For the purpose of automating this process, however, the initiating point would be the Show Cause Notice/ Demand Notice issued by the Department. The Show Cause Notice leads to Personal Hearing, if the Assessee agrees to appear before the Adjudicating authority. Personal Hearing results in an Order in Original. Review Cell of the respective Commissionerate reviews the issued Order in Original. The Central Excise Officer authorized by the Commissioner of Central Excise or the Assessee can appeal, against the Order in Original, with the Commissioner (Appeals), whose decision is issued in the form of Order in Appeal. On disagreement with the Order in Appeal, the Commissioner of Central Excise or the Assessee can appeal against the OIA with CESTAT, whose decision is issued in the form of Order in Appeal. On disagreement with the Order in Appeal the department or the Assessee can appeal in the courts. However since Courts are separate Jurisdictional authorities, hence automating their proceedings is not considered in the purview of this system. The Following processes are covered under Dispute Resolution. 1. Preparation of the Case Portfolio - This process enables the creation of a case portfolio for dispute, whenever a dispute arises. The case portfolio contains the details of the documents relied upon for the case, Through this process the status of the dispute case along with the details of proceedings took place till date will be maintained.

2. Creation of the Demand Note - Once the case is recorded, the Central Excise Office can optionally issue a demand note. The demand note enables the Assessee to settle the case without any litigation. Response to the demand note is also to be tracked. 3. Issuance of Show Cause Notice (SCN) - This describes the process of drafting and approval of the Show cause notice (SCN). This also deals with the issuance of SCN to the Assessee and recording Assessee's reply to the Show Cause Notice. In case of serious offences the department prefers to directly issue SCN without issuing a demand note in advance. In all other cases the department usually issues a demand note. If the Assessee makes the payment as demanded in the demand note, then the matter ends and no SCN is required to be issued. If there is no response to the demand note, - no payment has been made, and no letter, within the time frame specified in the demand note then the department will issue a SCN to initiate the legal action. 4. Adjudication of A Dispute & Review of the Order - This process documents the steps involved in adjudication of a dispute. Usually the steps are conducting personal hearing, capturing the details of the personal hearing session, issuing an Order-In-Original, reviewing of O-I-O by reviewing officer. Review Cell Reviews the Order-In-Original Issued and Communicates its recommendations to the Commissioner 5. Filing an Appeal with Commissioner and the subsequent handling of the Appeal - This process documents the steps involved in filing an appeal against an Order-In-Original. The steps are filing of appeal, fixing of a date for hearing by the appellate authority, conducting personal hearing, capturing the details of personal hearing session, issuing an Order-In-Appeal, reviewing of O-I-A by reviewing officer. 6. Recovery of Debts - The process is initiated by AC/DC by making request (Manual Request) to commissioner to grant him permission to initiate the recovery of debts by attaching all movable or immovable property of the Assessee, which upon auction or sale would be equal in amount as demanded in the order. 7. Writing off Irrecoverable Debts - The process is triggered when department realizes that the duty demanded in any order cannot be recovered from Assessee and department decides to write-off the duty demanded. Writing-off irrecoverable debts is a provision with Commissioner / Chief Commissioner which is invoked only after applying all provisions to recover the duty demanded as per order are applied and still the duty could not be recovered.

8. Filing An Appeal With The Tribunal and the subsequent handling of the same - This process documents the steps involved in filing an appeal against Order-In-Appeal (issued by the Commissioner (Appeals) or by the Central Excise Commissioner with Appellate Tribunal. Aggrieved party files an appeal against the order in the Tribunal; Tribunal conducts Personal Hearing and looks into other documentary evidences. Based on the facts placed in front of the Tribunal they issue an order. 9. Settling disputes through Settlement Commission - This process documents the steps involved in filing an appeal with settlement commission and there after steps involved in issuing a settlement order. 10. Prosecution This process can allow the department to prosecute the assessee. It covers the nature of offence; assessee can be prosecuted if assessee tries to evade the duty or involved in fraudulent activities. 11. Case Proceedings This Process allows updating the case proceedings. 12. Stay Order This Process helps the Assessee to take a Stay on various things i.e. Stay of Recovery, Stay of Action of the Order. 13. Anti Evasion - The process is triggered whenever the Preventive Intelligence Officer (deployed to collect and develop a sound intelligence system which is the very basis of fruitful preventive work) gathers information about an Assessee (involved in fraud or evasion of tax) through reliable informers.

4 Issuance of Show Cause Notice (SCN)


When Dispute arises and the issue remains unresolved, the Central Excise Officer will initiate the process of issuance of show cause Notice. The jurisdictional superintendent will draft the SCN with the requisite data and the same will be routed to the respective competent authority for approval. On detection of a dispute the central excise officer may optionally issue a demand note. This demand note enables the Assessee to voluntarily pay the differential duty and avoid the legal course of the dispute. If the Assessee is not agreeing to the demand note then the central excise officer will initiate the action of issuance of Show Cause Notice. Usually the issuance of SCN will be delayed till the last month in which the show cause notice can be issued. Before expiration of time limit imposed for the issuance of SCN There is no hard-core rule as such to delay the issuance of SCN till last month; it is just to give a chance to the Assessee to settle the case without legal litigation. In case it is found that the Assessee is not agreeing to the demand note or the case is very critical then the Central Excise officer can initiate the issuance of SCN without any waiting. If the non-levy or short levy or non-payment or short payment of duty is by offences of serious nature or high stakes and /or legal questions are involved then the Central Excise Officer can directly issue a SCN without issuing demand note. The direct issuance of SCN is totally left to the discretion of Central Excise Officer. Creation of a SCN Viewing SCN Reply to SCN Search SCN For Viewing (Issued/Replied)

5 Adjudication of a Case & Review of the Order


After a notice has been served on the Assessee and he in turn files a reply, or does not reply within 30 days, the Assessee is to be given the opportunity to be heard in person by the adjudicating authority. In this process the adjudicating authority will communicate a date for personal hearing and the Assessee is given an opportunity to produce relevant documents supporting his viewpoint, adjudicating authority will listen to the explanation given by the Assessee on the issues mentioned in the notice. The proceedings conducted in this regard are quasi-judicial in nature and culminate in the issue of an Order-In-Original by the adjudicating officer. The Order is a speaking order i.e. it details the reasons for why it holds a certain view either confirming the demand made in the Show Cause Notice or dropping it. The Order may even confirm the demand partially (and drop the balance) but in no case can the confirmed amount exceed the amount for which the Assessee was put to notice. The order may also impose fine and/or penalty. In disputes where there is no revenue involvement but only a procedural infraction- the Order would give a finding about the Assessees culpability and may impose a fine (on offending goods) or penalty (on the person) or both. In some cases (rarest) the Assessee may request that they do not require a show cause notice and that they may be given an O-I-O against which he can file an appeal with next level. The process of adjudication of a dispute and review of the O-I-O has the following process steps. The following are the steps involved when a dispute is adjudicated by AC/DC or JC/AD
The Process is divided in the following. Personal Hearing Memo (Fixing a Date for Personal Hearing) Personal Hearing Issuance of Order In Original (O-I-O) Review Cell Feedback (Review of the Order) Issuance of Review Order

7.1 Filing Recovery Request
7.1.1 Description
Any order (OIO/OIA/Court Order / Settlement Commission Order) confirming the duty demand and the Assessee has neither appealed against the order nor has paid the duty as demanded in the order. The CBEC official will wait till the time within which an appeal can be filed against the order issued. The process is initiated by AC/DC by making request (Manual Request) to commissioner to grant him permission to initiate the recovery of debts by attaching all movable or immovable property of the Assessee, which upon auction or sale would be equal in amount as demanded in the order. The process steps are as given below: AC/DC sends a manual request to commissioner to grant him permission to start recovery process. The AC/DC along with Superintendent will make an estimate of the property to be attached (movable / immovable). AC/DC will attach the property. AC/DC will auction or sell the property. AC/DC will deposit the amount recovered in the form of TR-6 challan. If the amount realized due to auction or sale of property is more than what is to be recovered, then the AC/DC will deposit the recovered money in the bank against the TR-6 challan and will give back the leftover money to the Assessee. If the amount realized due to auction or sale of property is less than what is to be recovered then the AC/DC will deposit the money recovered through TR-6 challan and makes a request to the Commissioner to writeoff the irrecoverable amount. (A detailed description of irrecoverable process is given below as a separate process). If the amount realized due to auction or sale of property is equal to what is to be recovered then the AC/DC will deposit the money recovered through TR-6 challan.
