To submit brand wise and trade wise information of country liquor/ spirits and beer manufa — 26 May 2016

What This Document Says

Gazette Reference: Commissioner Circular No. संकीर्ण ११२०१५/मद्य उत्पादन-विक्री/५-ब, dated 9th May 2016

Type: Administrative Directive — Data Reporting Requirements

Authority:

Maharashtra Country Liquor Manufacturing Rules, 1973 - Rule 47
Maharashtra Distillation of Spirit and Manufacture of Potable Liquor Rules, 1966 - Rule 24
Maharashtra Beer and Wine Manufacturing Rules, 1966 - Rule 19

Summary:

The Commissioner of State Excise has issued comprehensive instructions standardizing the format and procedure for submission of brand-wise and trade-wise information by country liquor, IMFL (Indian Made Foreign Liquor), and beer manufacturers within Maharashtra. This circular addresses persistent discrepancies between production data submitted by manufacturers, distribution figures from wholesalers (FL-I licensees), and retail sales data, which have prevented accurate reconciliation of excise revenue collection.

What Changed:

Previous Practice Issues Identified:

Manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers were submitting data in their own formats rather than prescribed forms
Significant mismatches existed between:
- Manufacturers' distribution claims and wholesalers' receipt records
- Soft copies and printed statements from same entities
- Data from manufacturers versus Divisional Deputy Commissioner offices
- Month-end transactions being recorded in following month
- Incomplete information (missing signatures, incorrect time periods, inclusion of non-excise duties)
- Inconsistent reporting of exports to other states and CSD (Canteen Stores Department) sales within Maharashtra trade data
- FL-I to FL-I transfers (permitted in some districts) being incorrectly included in retail distribution figures
