Valuation of free samples under excise

Can any one clarify what is the appropriate basis of  valuation for free samples for charging excise duty...??

Would it be according to Rule 4 of Valuation Rules(value nearest to the time of Removal... which became the price available to wholesalers  by the factory in my problem)

or Rule 8(which says about Captive Consumption of goods i.e. 110% of cost of production according to the valuation rules).....

Rule 4 only. There is an express provision in this regard.!

Thankyou...but pl get my further query..  if MRP provisions are not applicable for valuation....and cost of production is known.......

Whether the free samples would be valued at 110% assuming the appropriate method to be captive consumption or just at the cost of production alone......

 

Dear Swetha

Treatment of this will be as per mentioned below:

Condition No.01: If the product is marketable then the selling cost will be assessable value in case of free billing.

Condition No 02: If the product is not marketable then assessment will based on Cost of Production+10% (According to CAS-4).

Best Regards
