Sir,

One clarification - in the case of major capacity expansion projects,  we will be importing capital goods in a phased manner and installing the same .   But overall completion/installation of the expanded Unit will be a later date.  Whether 6 months for installation certification will be counted for each item of capital goods or installation of Unit as a whole.   If the interpretation is  installation certificate is required for  each item of capital goods within 6 months of import,  any remedy for delays?

kindly advise

in this scenario ...........you are advised to Approach the Chartered engineer (if not Registered in Excise) otherwise Alrady registered in excise approach meet inspector and ask for arrange Installation Certificate on back date.
