27 Jul 2016 Evaluate
 
Central excise collection from both the Mumbai Zones put together (Zone-I and Zone-II) in the first quarter of 2016-17, surged by 36 percent to Rs 15,729 crore from Rs 11,551 crore a year ago. Chief Commissioner of Central Excise and head of the Mumbai Zones, Subhash C Varshney said that the healthy jump in revenue collection was due to the massive rise in duty on diesel and petrol. During the first quarter the duty on petrol rose to Rs 21.48 per litre from Rs 17.46 per litre a year ago, while the same on diesel jumped to Rs 17.33 from Rs 10.26 per litre during the year-ago period.
 
As per the breakup of revenue collection from both the zones, earning from Zone-I was Rs 7,089 crore against the moving target of Rs 5,072 crore. Similarly, revenue collection by Zone-II during the period was Rs 8,640 crore against the moving target of Rs 6,531 crore. The zone had collected only Rs 4,792 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal. Furthermore, both the zones are gearing up to meet the revenue collection target of Rs 53,300 crore, which includes Rs 23,300 crore for Zone-I and Rs 30,000 crore for Zone-II, for the entire fiscal.

The revenue collection from BPCL and HPCL, which fall under Zone-II, almost doubled to Rs 8,399 crore from Rs 4,727 crore a year ago. Similarly, revenue collection from cigarette major Godfrey Phillips during the reporting quarter was up 51 per cent to Rs 165 crore from Rs 109 crore in the year-ago period.
