Now can i Claim Input cenvat credit, which is paid on the machinery against the Excise duty, on the sale of Liquer?

27 February 2008 you can claim the input of excise duty on plant & machinery(capital goods)at the rate of 50% in the first year and remaiing in subsequent year.and you have to value the plant& machinery net of excise input credit .
