NOTIFICATION 67/95 CE is a well known notification .Whenever any excisable goods are manufactured by the assessee, in the course of manufacture of those goods, intermediate products may also arise which are also excisable. To avoid paying excise duty on such intermediate goods and again on the final products, this notification was issued to exempt such intermediate goods manufactured by an assessee in his factory.
Provided that nothing contained in this notification shall apply to inputs used in or in relation to the manufacture of final products which are exempt from the whole of duty of excise leviable thereon or are chargeable to Nil rate of duty.
That means, if no excise duty is payable on the final products, then this exemption is not allowed. All such manufactures have to pay duty on the excisable intermediate goods emerging in the course of manufacture of exempted final products.
