This issue has been examined by this Court by a three Judge Bench in Collector of Central Excise, Pune v. Daiichi Karkaria Limited (1999) 112 B 353 SC and it was held that excise duty paid on raw material, if modvatted, is not to be included in determining the cost of production of excisable products.
