spent earth oil

This query is : Resolved 

26 March 2011 we are manufacturer of edible oil so is there any change in rate of duty and notification for spent earth?

26 March 2011 rate if duty for edible oil from 01.03.2011 is 5% with cess 3%

26 March 2011 notification availed 6/2010?

26 March 2011 In Notification 6/2010 there is any amendment related to "spentearth" duty taxable or exempted?

25 July 2025 Regarding **spent earth oil** used in edible oil manufacturing, hereโ€™s a summary based on the discussion and typical customs/excise practice around 2011:

* **Basic duty on edible oil** was 5% plus 3% cess as of 01.03.2011.
* For **spent earth** (which is a waste/residue from the refining process), the duty treatment depends on specific notifications.
* **Notification 6/2010-CE** (Central Excise) provides exemptions or clarifications on duty for certain materials including spent earth.

### Key points to check:

* Whether spent earth is **classified as a waste** or input material.
* If covered under **notification 6/2010-CE or any amendment** specifically exempting spent earth from duty.
* If **spent earth is chargeable or exempted** under this notification depends on the exact HS code and notification clauses.

### Suggested action:

1. Refer to **Notification No. 6/2010-CE** and any subsequent amendments for specific mention of spent earth.
2. Check if spent earth is **exempted** or subject to duty under the current customs/excise schedule.
3. Consult official government gazette or CBIC website for latest updates on notifications related to edible oil manufacturing inputs/waste.

If you want, I can try to locate the exact notification text or latest duty rate updates for spent earth. Would you like me to do that?
