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, here’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?
