19 May 2011 capital goods clared as scrap on which input credit is not availed, are not liable for excise duty.

if input credit has been availed then you have to pay duty on transaction value.

20 May 2011 if you will clear the capital goods by declaring the capital goods you have to dabit the whole duty after deprecating 10% per year

suppose capital goods are 5 year old you have to decrease the duty amount by 50% which you took credit at the time of purchase
