SUMMARY

This is NOT an amendment gazette but rather a consolidated reference document (Citizen Charter) presenting the existing excise duty structure, special fees, and registration procedures for various types of alcohol in Maharashtra. It serves as a public information resource outlining current rates without introducing new changes.

Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL):

  • 300% of manufacturing cost OR ₹300/proof litre (whichever higher)
  • MRP Formula: MC × 5 + ST (if MC < ₹120/BL); escalates for higher MC

Country Liquor:

  • 213% of MC or ₹135/proof litre (whichever higher)

  • 60% of MC or ₹135/proof litre (whichever higher)

  • IMFL (MC ₹30-70/L): ₹7,500
  • IMFL (MC >₹70/L): ₹10,000
  • Beer/Wine: ₹5,000

CRITICAL NOTES

  1. Wine Duty Exemption: Scheduled to expire 31.12.2021 — likely outdated in current context

  2. Reference Date: CSD rates effective from 01.04.2011 — document may not reflect subsequent amendments

  3. MRP Formula Components:

    • MC = Manufacturing Cost
    • ST = Sales Tax (now GST post-2017)
    • Formulas use progressive multipliers based on cost thresholds
  4. Not a Legal Amendment: This document consolidates existing rules for citizen reference and does NOT constitute a new notification or fee revision


Recommendation: For current applicable rates, consult latest Maharashtra Government Gazette notifications post-2021, as this Citizen Charter reflects historical duty structure.
