 - When wash is about to be prepared the distiller shall give notice to the officer-in-charge and as soon as the wash is ready for gauging and proving, submit to him a declaration in writing on the prescribed form (R.D. 8) specifying the kind and quantity of materials used, the number of litres of wash made, and its initial specific gravity corrected for temperature.
 
### 58. Officer-in-charge to verify wash declaration.
 - The officer-in-charge, on receipt of the distillers' declaration shall proceed to verify the same, and enter the result in his diary.
 
### 59. Wash ready for distillation to be gauged by officer-in-charge.
 - As soon as the wash is fully attenuated and ready for distillation the distiller shall again inform the officer-in-charge and that officer shall again, by gauging and the use of the saccharometer, and a coholometer (where one has been supplied), ascertain the quantity and specified gravity of the attenuated wash and record the particulars in his diary. The initial gravity shall be determined by adding the degrees of attenuation as ascertained by the alcoholometer to the actual gravity indicated by the saccharometer.
 
### 60. Still to be securely closed.
 - There shall be no openings into any still except those in connection with the charging and discharge pipes, condensers, mandoors and aircocks or valves upon the bretast of head. The external office of an air valve must be so constructed and covered by a perforated metal plate as to make it impracticable by means of it either to introduce wash or to abstract spirit or to convey spirit vapour away for condensation elsewhere.
 
### 61. Re-distillation in post-stills to be supervised by officer-in-charge.
 - When a post-still is being used for the re-distillation of unfinished spirit the mandoor and the charging and discharge pipes shall be secured by the officer-in-charge with closed fastening and such still shall be charged and discharged only after notice has been given to the officer-in-charge and under his supervision. The officer-in-charge, on being required to open the discharge cock for the discharge of spentles, shall satisfy himself that the spirit contained in the unfinished spirit with which the still was charged has been completely extracted by distillation.
 
 In the case of continuous stills, re-distillation may be allowed by feeding the spirit to be re-distilled in the rectifying column or mixing the spirit with the wash which has been fully attenuated and the alcoholic contents of which have been calculated or determined before mixing. In case unfinished spirit is not mixed with it should be put into and locked up Into the wash charger wash for re-distillation, or other vessel in which the pump works. The distillers are free to carry out such re-distillation in separate still, specially meant for the purpose, to avoid the risk of excess wastage.
 
### 62. Safes to be fitted to stills.
 - There shall be placed between every still and the receiver or receivers into which it discharges, a glass 'safe' furnished with a hydrometer capable of showing the strength of liquor down to the zero of water. There may be separate safes between each still and its receiver or receivers, or a central safes which controls the worm ends between a number of stills and their receivers.
 
### 63. Sampling apparatus.
 - If desired, a sampling apparatus may also be used, provided that it is so constructed that for every sample drawn off, and exactly equal quantity is discharged into a closed and locked receiver. The samples shall be produced before the officer-in-charge, who on finding that they agree in measurement and strength with corresponding quantity discharge into the receiver, shall pass them into store. Should any deficiency occur the matter must be reported for orders.
 
### 64. Arrangement of still etc.
 - The distiller shall so arrange his stills that spirit shall discharge into closed and locked receivers of such pattern that no spirit can be removed from them unless they are unlocked. The Excise Commissioner may require the distiller to affix to any receiver an apparatus which will prevent the supply and discharge cocks being open at the same time.
 
### 65. Size of receivers.
 - Receivers should ordinarily be of sufficient size to hold all the spirit likely to be made in the stills during the 72 hours of continuous working and must be placed so that a free passage is left round them and a clear space below them to permit of their being easily examined.
 
### 66. Working of cocks on charging and discharge pipes of receivers.
 - Both the charging and the discharge pipes of receivers must be fitted with cocks which can be locked. The cock on the charging pipe must be shut and locked whenever that on the discharge pipe is open and vice-versa, except when both are required to remain open simultaneously for repairs or for other proper reason, in which case either the whole apparatus must be disengaged from the still and be so secured and locked, that it cannot be used again until the officer-in-charge has removed the lock, or the still itself must be locked up so that it cannot be used. When spirit runs from the receiver into the warehouse, the discharge cock of the receiver is to be frequently tested to see that it does not permit any leakage when shut, by shutting for half an hour or longer the inlet cocks at the vats while spirit is collecting in the receiver, and ascertaining whether any accumulation takes place in the pipe. The date of such tests and their results should be entered in the diary.
 
### 67. All spirits to be run in empty receiver.
 - The spirit, whether finished or unfinished produced by any one distillation shall be run into an empty receiver or receivers and such spirit shall be gauged and proved by the officer-in-charge in the receiver or receivers of the still in which it is produced, before it is passed out of such receiver or receivers or mixed with spirit produced by any other distillation. The particulars of such gauging and proof will be recorded in the diary.
 
### 68. Produce of distillation.
 - The produce of a single distillation should not exceed the quantity that can be held in a single receiver, nor shall such produce consist of the distillate of the contents of a larger number of complete wash backs than has been run into the still for a longer period than seventy-two hours.
 
### 69. Store vats to be kept in warehouse.
 - Store vats shall be kept in a room or building set apart entirely for them and provided with only one door, such rooms or building will be designated "the warehouse".
 
### 70. Separate store vats to be used for different kinds of spirits.
 - Separate store vats are to be used for the storage of different kind of spirit. If issues are made direct to vendors of country spirit special vats must be provided for the issue of such spirit at the fixed strength prescribed for such issues.
 
### 70A. [
 
 [Inserted by GSR 74, Published in Rajasthan Government Gazette Part IV(Ga) , dated 9-1-86, page 240 [9-1-86].]
 With the previous sanction of the Excise Commissioner Country Spirit of Indian Made Foreign Spirit intended to undergo the process of maturing may be stored, without prepayment of duty, in casks/vats in a room within the distillery enclosure specially set apart and used only for his purpose and secured under the double lock of the officer-in-charge and the licensee. The spirit for maturation may with the special permission of the Excise Commissioner, be kept in wooden vats and in spirit store- room, which shall for the purposes of this rule be deemed to be matured spirit warehouse. Deposits in and withdrawals from the warehouse will be governed by the following rules:
 
(1) An application for the removal of country spirit or Indian made foreign spirit from the store-room to the matured spirit warehouse must be made in writing to the officer-in-charge. The application on presentation, must specify the serial number of each cask/vat and before removal takes place, must be completed by specifying for each cask/vat its full capacity the quantity and strength of the spirit it contains.
 
(2) Removals may be made at any strength not below the strength prescribed for the issue of spirit.
 
(3) No cask/vat of less than 36 litres capacity shall be removed for deposit in the matured spirit warehouse.
 
(4) In preparation for removals, the rate or weight empty, of each cask/vat must first be ascertained, the cask/vat thereafter filled to the bunghole with the spirit intended for removal or the capacity determined in the manner prescribed by the Excise Commissioner.
 
(5) All particulars of gauge and proof must be recorded at the time of removal in the appropriate columns of the warehouses register (in Form R.D. 10-B) instead of on the pass, as in the case of ordinary issues. The quantity removed (in proof litres) will be shown as transferred to the warehouse in the appropriate column of the issue register (in Form R.D. 10-A) but it is important that the removal should not be classed with the issue.
 
(6) On the outside of the heads of every cask/vat removed from the storeroom for deposit in the matured spirit warehouse must be legibly printed with oil colour the progressive number of the cask vat beginning with number one on the 1st April in each year, also the financial year in which the deposit is made, and the full capacity to the nearest tenth of a litre.
 
(7) No pass will be necessary to cover transport from the spirit store-room to the matured spirit warehouse, but the distiller will have to declare the period for which be intended to keep the quantity of spirit for maturation.
 
(8) Immediately preparation for removal has been completed the officer-in-charge must see the cask/vat or casks/vats safely deposited in the warehouse.
 
(9) Each cask/vat deposited in the warehouse must be closed with a bung of hard wood, fitted flush with the outside of the bung stave. The licensee may, in his discretion, insert a spigot into the hard wood bung, to serve as a safety valve.
 
 Cask/vats must be so arranged in the warehouse as to allow easy access to them, in order that a correct account of their concents may be taken at any time and leakages may be readily discovered.
 
(10) It will be unnecessary to take account of the spirit in stock in the matured spirit warehouse monthly as in the case of spirit in the store rooms. The stock of spirit in the warehouse will invariably be the total quantity in proof litres as shown in the warehouse register in Form R.D. 10-B. The officer of the Excise Department at their periodical visits should however check the quantity of spirit in a few of the casks/vats in the warehouse and record the result briefly in the warehouse register in Form R.D. 10-B, where they find that the deficiency is in excess of the scale prescribed under sub-rule (5) of rule 4 of Rajasthan Stock Taking and Wastage of Liquor Rules, 1959 they should enquire into the cause and satisfy themselves that no illicit abstraction from the cask/vat has occurred. The officer- in-charge will be responsible that casks/vats while in the warehouse are not tampered with, unless in his presence, for necessary repairs, or for examination of the spirit by the officers of the Excise Department, the licensee or his manager. The Officer-in-charge should make, each month, a careful inspection of the apparent condition of each cask/vat lying in the matured spirit warehouse and arrange for the immediate transference of the contents of a cask found leaking. The result of each inspection should be briefly recorded in the warehouse register in Form R.D. 10-B and a note that the usual inspection has been made, should also be entered in the Officer-in-charge's diary in Form R.D. 5.
 
(11) Wherever cask/vat can be transferred to the new cask/vat whose full capacity has been first ascertained, which must be marked the same number similar to the old one in the presence of the Officer-in-charge of the licensee. The note of such transfer will be made in the warehouse register.
 
(12) No removal of part of the contents of a cask/vat is permitted from the warehouse to the store-room.
 
(13) Removal will be made from the warehouse to the store-room on the written application of the licensee specifying the progressive number of the cask/vat, the year when it was deposited in warehouse and (on its removal) the allege quantity and strength.
 
(14) On receipt of licensee's application, the Officer-in-charge will after taking account of the spirit is the cask/vat by mean of bung rod in the manner prescribed by the Excise Commissioner, see the cask/vat removed to the store-room from which the issue of matured spirit will be made under the ordinary rules and procedure. The actual quantity of spirit in proof litre removed from the warehouse to the store-room will be recorded in the ware-house register as passing into the stock of the latter.
 
(15) The deficiency allowable during the period of storage in the warehouse is calculated according to the scale prescribed under the Rajasthan Stock Taking and Wastage of Liquor Rules, 1959. In the event of the deficiency being in excess of the prescribed scale, the officer-in-charge will make a brief report in the ware-house register in Form R.D. 10-B on the condition of the cork on delivery i.e. "no apparent cause" in cases where the cask/vat is in apparently sound condition, and a few brief remarks where such causes as leaks defective stages, broken hoops, porous wood, etc., might account for the excess any officer of Excise Department specially authorised by the Excise Commissioner to inspect the Distilleries of their inspections will enquire into the reasons given for the excess and if they are satisfied that will initial the officer in-charge's entry in the warehouse register in Form R.D. 10-A. If they are not satisfied that the excess is due to natural or accidental cause, he will submit a report, recording their reasons at full length to the District Excise Officer so that action for recovery of duty on the excess may be taken.]
 
### 71. Gorged liquor to be destroyed.
 - Water which has been poured into empty liquor vats to prevent shrinkage of the wood, and has become alcoholic by abstraction of the spirit absorbed by the wood should be run off into a sewer in the presence of the officer-in-charge. When water is added to a vat to prevent shrinkage, the vat should be kept locked.
 
### 72. Minor alterations in distillery arrangements.
 - The previous sanction of the Excise Commissioner should be obtained to all alterations in and additions to buildings or permanent apparatus actually used in the preparation conveyance or storage of liquor, except in the following case, in which officer-in-charge may sanction the alterations, subject to immediate report to and subsequent approval by the Excise Commissioner-
 
(a) Additions, alterations or repairs to wash vessels, pipes used for the conveyance of wash, steam, gas or water, stills not actually in use, furnaces and fluses, mixing apparatus and wash or water pumps.
 
(b) Necessary repairs to gauged vessels or to spirit pipes.
 
(c) Repairs of an emergent nature.
 
 As regards works coming under head (a)  the officer-in-charge may, on receipt of twenty-four-hours' written notice from the distiller or his authorised agent, permit the work to be proceeded with, but in any case of doubt he should refer the matter to the Excise Commissioner. All such applications should be filed for future reference.
 
 In the case of works coming under head (b)  the officer-in-charge may, on similar notice being given permit the work to proceed if he is convinced that any delay in proceeding with it would cause in-convenience. He will be held responsible that the work is performed without risk or loss to the revenue.
 
 Repairs of an ostensibly urgent nature may be allowed to proceed immediately on receipt of a written application. Care must be taken to see that no risk to the revenue is involved.
 
### 73. Repairs etc. to be reported.
 - In all cases a full report detailing the repairs, additions or alterations that have been permitted should be submitted to the Excise Commissioner within twenty-four hours of the grant of the permission, and the matter should also be noted in the diary of the officer-in-charge.
 
### 74. Blending and reduction of spirit.
 - Blending and reduction of plain spirit is permitted in the store vats, provided such blending and reduction is done in the presence of the officer-in-charge and under his supervision. The officer-in-charge must see that through admixture has been effected and may then, if the distiller so desires, prove the spirit to see that the required strength has been obtained. He should, however, take no proof for the purpose of issue from a vat in which blending or reduction has taken place, until the lapse of at least twenty-four hours such blending or reduction. In cases of emergency this rule may be relaxed, but in no case can a proof for issue be taken until after lapse of two hours.
 
### 75. Colouring in store vats not permitted.
 - The colouring of spirits in the store vat is not permitted.
 
### 76. Coloured rum warehouse.
 - Spirit to which it is desired to add caramel at the time of storing, instead of at the time of issue, must be stored in a separate "Coloured Rum" warehouse.
 
 After the gauging and proving of the plain spirit, the caramel will be added in such quantities as the distiller may desire.
 
 The volume of the caramel added will be noted by the officer-in-charge in Form R.D. 14 and on the following day, the contents of the vat will again be gauged and proved. The apparent loss in proof litres due to obscuration will be shown as an "Issue" in columns 8 and 16 of the Form 14; duty will be assessed on this apparent loss and will be debited against the distiller's advance in Form R.D. 23. The fact that this has been done will be noted in the column of remarks in Form R.D. 14. The item must also be shown in register R.D. 11 although no pass is actually issued.
 
 When spirit has been coloured and duty charged in the above manner no further addition of spirit can be made to the vat previous to its being emptied.
 
 All spirit finally issued from the coloured rum ware house will pay duty on the apparent strength at the time of issue.
 
### 77. Obscuration and mode of taking sample for analysis.
 - Great care must be taken that no sugar, salt or other matter soluble in spirit and heavier than water, is added to the spirit before it is proved so as to effect the action of the hydrometer, or in other words, to 'obscure' the strength. If anything of the kind is suspected three samples of the spirit (of about 4 ounces each) shall be taken, whereof, one sample be sealed and sent for analysis, one sealed and kept under lock and key until the result of the analysis as known, and one sealed and handed over to the distiller or his manager each of the three samples should be marked with the same distinctive mark or number and should be dated and be verified by the initials or signature of the officer-in-charge. The officer-in-charge must not in any case make the distiller aware of his intention to take samples, but he should request the distiller or his manager to be present at the time of taking them, and inform him that the samples are taken for the purpose of examination. These instructions as to the mode of taking samples apply also to cases in which District Excise Officer desire to take samples in order to ascertain whether substance deleterious to health although not such as to effect the indication of the hydrometer, are present in spirit.
 
### 78. Calculation of duty In cases of obscuration.
 - When it is known or suspected that saccharine or other matter of such a nature as prevent the true strength being ascertained by means of the hydrometer, is present in spirit, the number of degree to be added to the apparent strength on account of obscuration shall be certified by the Chief Chemical analyst. Government of Rajasthan, Jaipur on analysis of a sample of the spirit submitted to him and duty shall be calculated on the quantity and strength of such spirit after the addition of the number of degrees of proof certified as necessary to be added to the apparent strength, as ascertained by the hydrometer.
 
### 79. Tests for ascertaining presence of foreign matter.
 - In cases in which an officer-in-charge suspects that salt, sugar or other substance likely to affect the indications of the hydrometer has been dissolved in the spirit but his suspicions are not sufficiently definite to warrant his taking samples he should from time to time evaporate a small quantity of spirit in a watch glass when the presence of solid matter will be easily detected. Vegetable substances such as sugar may be distinguished from salt by their being blackened and dissipated by heat after the spirit and water have been driven off. From the ordinary impurities in the water used in the manufacture of spirit few samples will be found which do not leave some trace of solid matter after evaporation, but these may always be distinguished from foreign matter added in such quantities as would affect the strength indicated by the hydrometer. It will be for officer-in-charge occasionally to apply this simple test even when they have no suspicions that such substances as sugar, etc., have been dissolved in the spirit made in the distillery under their charge.

 [Substituted by GSR 155, dated 3-9-1983, Published in Rajasthan Government Gazette Part IV-C(I) , dated 15-12-83, page 681, dated 3-9-83.]
(1) [Spirit may be denatured in following ways viz.]:-
 
(i) With crotonaldehyde, Pyridine and Methyleneblue or pyridine and caoutchoucine, or
 
(ii) with wood naphtha, or
 
(iii) with 1 per cent of Caster Oil and 5 per cent of Caustic Soda solution by volume.
 
(iv) [ or in other ways as laid down by the Bureau of Indian Standards from time to time in this regard.]
 
 [Inserted by S.O. 236, dated 18-3-93; Published in Rajasthan Government Gazette Extraordinary Part IV-C(II) , dated 18-3-93, page 399, dated 18-3-93.]
 
(2) The first kind of denatured spirit is meant for general use and may be issued to all whole sale vendors of denatured spirit for sale in retail to the public. It shall be prepared by adding 0.6 per cent crotonaldehyde, 0.5 per cent pyridine and .001 per cent methylene blue or 0.5 per cent by volume of light caoutchoucine & 0.5 per cent by volume of mineral pyridine bases to the whole volume of rectified spirit of a strength not less than 60 boover proof.
 
(3) The second kind of denatured spirit is intended for use in the manufacture of transparent soap only and may be issued to any manufacturer of transparent soap to whom a licence in form F.L. 19 has been issued by the Excise Commissioner in accordance with the conditions of his licence. It shall be prepared by the addition of 5 per cent of approved wood naptha to the whole volume of rectified spirit of strength not less than over proof.
 
(4) The third kind of denatured spirit is also intended for use in the manufacture of transparent soap only and may be issued to a holder of a licence in Form F.L. 19. It shall be prepared by the addition of 1 per cent of Caster Oil and 0.5 per cent of Caustic Soda to the whole volume of rectified spirit of a strength of not less than 60 over proof].
 
### 81. [ Specification or prescribed denaturants.
 
 [Substituted by GSR 155, dated 3-9-1983, Published in Rajasthan Government Gazette Part IV-C(I) , dated 15-12-83, page 681, dated 3-9-83.]
 - The specification of the denaturants crotonaldhyde, pyridine, methylene, blue, Caoustic coauchoucine and naptha [and other denaturants shall be those as laid down by the Bureau of Indian Standards from time to time in this regard]:
 
 Provided that if it be proved to the satisfaction of the Government that the above specified denaturants will render the spirit unsuitable for the industrial process purpose for which it is required, special sanction may be given to the use of some other denaturant, guards and conditions as may be deemed necessary under the special circumstances of the case].
 
### 82. Denaturant to be tested.
 - All ingredients intended for denaturing spirit shall be lodged with the officer-in-charge of the distillery and before any denaturant is brought into use that officer shall send samples (one pint from each cask or drum) in a separate bottle sealed and labelled to the Chief Chemical Analyst to Government of Rajasthan, Jaipur for such other officer as the State Government may appoint in that behalf, for examination and report:
 
 Provided that if each cask or drum is presented to the officer-in-charge duly sealed with seal of the said Chief Chemical Analyst (or other officer duly appointed) and accompanied by a certificate from the officer that the denaturant contained therein complies with the specifications referred to in the preceding paragraph the sending of a sample will not be necessary.
 
 But all the denaturants which have been in storage for a period exceeding six months after their test by the Chief Chemical Analyst to Government of Rajasthan, Jaipur (or other officer duly appointed), shall not, in any case be allowed to be used unless they are re-examined by the above mentioned officer and certified to be fit for use.
 
 A copy of the report shall be submitted to the excise Commissioner. The denaturant passed for use shall remain in excise custody until consumed, while those rejected shall be returned to the distiller. A correct account of all denaturants received into and issued from the stores shall be maintained by the officer-in-charge.
 
### 83. Special process of denaturation for spirit used in manufacture of soap.
 - The following additional rules are prescribed for the preparation of the second kind of denatured spirit to be used in the manufacture of transparent soap only:
 
### 1. All wood naptha submitted for approval as suitable for denaturing purpose shall consist of substance derived from the destructive distillation of wood and shall not contain any substance or mixture obtained from any other source. ###
 2. The wood naptha, must be sufficiently impure to impart to denatured spirits prepared by mixing 5 per cent of it with 95 per cent of spirit such an amount of nauseousness as will, in the opinion of the Chief Chemical Analyst to Government of Rajasthan, Jaipur render such spirit incapable of being used as a beverage or of being mixed with potable spirits of any kind without rendering them unfit for human consumption. Wood naptha submitted for approval should conform to the following test:-
 (a) Not more than 30 c.c. of the naptha should be required decolourise a solution containing 0.5 gram of bromine.
 
 (b) The naptha which must be neutral or only slightly alkaline to litmus should require at least 5 c.c. of decinormal acid to neutralise 25 c.c. of the spirit when methylorange is used as the indicator.
 
### 3. No wood naptha will be approved which contains- (a) less than 72 per cent by volume of methylalcohol:
 
 (b) more than 12 grams per 100 c.c. of acetone aldehydes, and higher ketones estimated as 'acetone' by the formation of iodoform according to Messenger's Method;
 
 (c) more than 3 grams per 100 c.c. of esters estimated as methylacetate by hydrolysis. Wood naptha which when fractionally distilled in the following manner, gives the indications stated below, will as a rule, be found to contain a sufficient proportion of methylalcohol, and to be free from an excess of "acetone" or methylacetate.
 
### 100. c.c. of the sample are to be slowly heated in a small copper flask fitted with a glass fractionating column 7 inches high and 3½ inches in diameter, filled to the extent of 4 inches of its height with small glass beads provided with a thermometer placed opposite the exit tube about an inch above the beads, and connected with a spiral condenser. Not more than 10 c.c. of distillate should be collected in the receiver when the thermometer in the fractionating column marks a temperature of just under 149 degree F (65 degree C) from 80 c.c. to 85 c.c. should pass over between 149 degree F (65 degree C) and 162 degree F (72.2 degree C) and a total quantity of 97 degree c.c. to 98 degree c.c. should have been passed over before the thermometer marks 212 degree F (100 degree C).
### 4. Wood naptha may be miscible or immiscible with water, but must be of a strength not lower than 60 O.P. as indicated by hydrometer and must not be used until a sample has been approved. ###
 5. The spirit denatured with wood naptha must be stored in a separate receptacle and accounted for separately.
### 84. Kind of spirit to be used in soap.
 - The third kind of denatured spirit to be used in the manufacture of transparent soap only shall contain one part of Kerosene oil and 0.5 part of caustic soda solution in 100 parts of spirit, all by volume. The caustic soda solution is to be prepared by dissolving one part of solid caustic soda of 98.99 per cent (Na O H) in 3 parts of water. Take the Kerosene oil, add to it 1 and ½ times its volume of alcohol while stirring and finally add the soda solution. A clear solution will be obtained which is to be added to the bulk of the alcohol.
 
### 85. Separate premises to be provided for process of denaturation and for storage of the denaturing agents.
 - Separate premises previously approved for the purpose by the Excise Commissioner shall be provided for the process of denaturation and for the storage of denaturing agents and the vessels and receptacles used in the process. Denaturation shall take place in these premises only and issue and storage of denatured spirit shall only be made from or in these premises the premises shall be secured by an excise lock, and denaturation shall take place under the direct supervision of the officer-in-charge.
 
### 86. Spirit denatured to be tested.
 - For the purpose of ascertaining that the spirit has been denatured in the prescribed manner the officer-in-charge of the distillery shall on each occasion that spirit is denatured, cause to be taken from each separate bulk of denatured spirit a sample, amounting to one pint, in a bottle sealed and labelled, and shall send such sample to the officer referred to in paragraph 82 for examination and report. The label on the bottle shall bear for number and date of the Chief Chemical Analyst's report passing the denaturants used. A copy of the report shall be submitted to the Excise Commissioner, who will issue orders as to the disposal of spirit not denatured in the prescribed manner.
 
 E-Issue of Spirit

 Any attempt on the part of the licensee or permit-holder to obtain spirit fraudulently in excess of the monthly or the annual quota fixed for him shall make him liable to cancellation of the licence or permit in addition to the penalties that may be imposed under the excise and other Acts for the time being in force.
 
### 90. When pass may be issued.
 - A pass shall be issued only either on proof of full payment of duty or on proof of execution of a bond by persons permitted to remove spirit under bond may be for any quantity up to the quantity covered by the duty paid or the bond. Duty may be paid either by cash payment at the treasury in respect of such issue or by debit against advance deposit:
 
 Provided that spirit which, by general or special order, is issuable free of duty or at a reduced rate of duty, may be issued in quantities of not less than 5 litres on production of the general or special order, permit or pass, as the case may be, to the officer-in-charge of the distillery.
 
### 91. Indian made foreign spirit or liquor (excluding beer) and country liquor of approved varieties and strength only to be manufactured, bottled and issued.

95. 
 Issue to vendors in distiller's contract area may be made from distillery warehouse.
 - Where a distillery is situated in the district in distiller's contract area, issues to shop-keepers in that district will generally be permitted from the distillery bonded warehouse direct.
 
### 96. Issue under bond for Export.
 - Issues under bond for export are governed by the Rajasthan Excise Rules, 1956. The officer-in-charge will issue pass in Form R.D. 24. The duplicate copy of the pass will be sent direct to the officer-in-charge of the bonded warehouse to which export takes place and an advice in Form R.D. 25 will be sent to the officer granting to the authority to import.
 
### 97. issue of duty paid foreign spirit to be made on passes and only to the distiller's wholesale premises.
 - Except in the case of issue of foreign spirits (other than denatured spirits) issued free of duty or at a reduced rate of duty, all foreign spirit on which duty is pre-paid, will be made on passes and to the premises in connection with which the distiller holds a licence for the wholesale vend of foreign spirit. The subsequent treatment of such spirit will be the same as that applying to imported foreign spirit.
 
### 98. Procedure for payment of duty.
 - The distiller shall deposit duty in cash by challan prescribed under the financial rules in the State Treasury and present the receipted copy of challan to the Excise Officer-in-charge of the distillery so as to secure issues of spirit or liquor as the case may be.
 
### 99. Issue of spirit on production of receipted application.
 - On production of the copy of the receipted Treasury challan, the officer-in-charge of the distillery shall verify that the duty deposited is correct before issuing the spirit and shall make out a pass in triplicate in Form R.D. 24, one copy being given to the distiller, the second being forwarded to the officer concerned at the destination and retaining the counterpart.
 
### 100. Issues against advance deposit of duty. - Distillers are permitted to make advance payments on account of excise duty on spirit to be removed from time to time from their distilleries. Such removals are permitted up to the limit of the advances, without separate payment of duty on account of each separate consignment of spirit removed. No original deposit advance payment shall be less than Rs. 2,000/- and each time an advance is replenished it must be by a sum which will bring it up to not less than that amount.
 
 Applications for the removal of spirit, the duty on which will be debited against the advance, will be in Form R.D. 19.
 
### 101. Advances to be paid into headquarters treasury.
 - Advances must be paid in the treasury at the headquarters of the district in which the distillery is situated, by means of challan prescribed under the Financial Rules omitting the particulars as to rate of duty, description of spirit, etc., and mentioning the words "advance duty".
 
### 102. (a) Institutions authorised to receive supplies to rectified spirit free of duty desiring to obtain, it shall end their permit together with their indent to the distillers who shall present it along with the application in Form R.D. 20 to the officer-in-charge of the distillery. The officer-in-charge if satisfied will make the issue under a pass in Form R.D. 24. One part of it will be given to the distillers, the duplicate will be sent to the District Excise Officer of the district to which the spirit is consigned and the counterpart will be retained for record. The officer-in-charge will also make necessary endorsement on the permit as required under rule 90 supra.
 
(b) On arrival of the spirit at the destination the Excise Inspector of the district in whose jurisdiction the premises are situated or such other officer as may be authorised by the Excise Commissioner in this behalf shall examine and verify the contents. The officer after recording the result of his verification on the pass will return it to the officer-in-charge of the distillery who, if he finds that there an excess transit wastage, will report the case to the District Excise Officer under whose charge the distillery lies. The District Excise Officer will report the case with the explanation of the distillers and his own views to the Excise Commissioner for orders.
 
(c) A register of duty free issues will be maintained in Form R.D. 23 which will enable the officer-in-charge to see that the quantity sanctioned is not exceeded.
 
(d) Permits in Form F.L. 32 will be issued by the Excise Commissioner, Rajasthan, in favour of officers and institutions authorised to receive duty-free supplies of rectified spirit except-
 
 (i) where indents have to be countersigned by heads of departments, or
 
 (ii) under rules in force in other States or Union territories, permits are issued by officers in those States or Union territories under the authority of their respective Governments.
 
(e) Duty free issues of both finished and unfinished spirit may also be made to distillers for experimental work connected with distillery operations only in accordance with the provisions of rule 94 (9).
 
### 103. The officers granting passes in respect of issues must.
(a) In the case of issue of duty paid spirit see that the correct amount of duty has been pre-paid or debited against the advance deposit before issue.

(c) In all cases where an export duty is to be levied, see that the export duty has been correctly levied and paid; and
 
(d) In all cases where vend fee is to be levied see that the vend fee has been correctly levied and paid.
 
 Any case of neglect of these instructions will be taken serious notice of.
 
### 104. Vessels In which spirit may be issued.
 - Spirit other than denatured spirit may be issued from distilleries in (1)  casks, (2) meted tanks or drums, but in quantities not less them 25 litres unless issued duty-free or at a reduced rate of duty. Bottling of liquor in bond is permitted only in the case of (a) spiced country spirit, and (b) plain country spirit:
 
 Provided that such bottled spirit shall be issued only to warehouses in the area for which the distiller holds a contract for supply.
 
### 105. Proving of spirit before issue.
 - If the casks other receptacles in which removal is to be made are to be filled from a vat, it will suffice to prove the strength of the spirit in such vat, once for all, before any of the receptacles are filled. But in this case the officer-in-charge must be careful to see that no addition to the contents of the vat is made while the filling of the receptacles is in progress. If such vat is in communication with any other room or part of the distillery, by a pipe through which liquor can be passed into it, such pipe must, during the operation of filling cask, etc. for issue, be securely closed by a valve or stop cock on which an excise lock has been fixed. If these conditions are not complied with the liquor in every cask or receptacle must be separately proved before it is passed out.
 
### 106. Margin of strength allowed.
 - In proving spirit issued at fixed strengths of 25 degree, 35 degree and 50 degree U.P. it will be sufficient for the officer-in-charge to satisfy himself that the strength is within[tolerance limit of 0.56 above or 0.50 B below]
 
 [ Substituted '0, 50B over' by Notification No. F. 32(B) (1) Ex/L/2014-Part-IV/1068, dated 10.7.2017-Rajasthan Gazette Extraordinary Part 2(A), dated 31.7.2017, Page 7 (w.e.f. 23.6.1977).]
 
 the reputed strength. [The issue of spirit below or above the prescribed tolerance limit is not permitted.]
 
 [Substituted 'The issue of spirit below the fixed strength is not permitted.' by Notification No. F. 32(B) (1) Ex/L/2014-Part-IV/1068, dated 10.7.2017-Rajasthan Gazette Extraordinary Part 2(A), dated 31.7.2017, Page 7 (w.e.f. 23.6.1977).]
 
### 107. Gauging of Issues.
 - The gauging of issues may be by the litre measure, by both authorised measuring appliance or by weighment. All litre measures must be compared with the standard litre measure at least once a month. Other sanctioned measuring appliances must be tested at the beginning of each week. Where gauging is made by weighment, distillers must provide the necessary scales and weights, the correctness of which should be frequently tested by officers-in-charge and by inspecting officers. In testing platform weighing, machines, the arm weights should be adjusted as accurately as possible against standard dead weights placed on the platform. No machine in which the error amounts to or exceeds 0.5 per cent should be permitted to be used until it has been properly adjusted.
 
### 108. Marking of casks and metal drums.
 - Casks or metal drums after being filled for issue, must have legibly cut, branded or marked in oil paint on one head the capacity in litres, the consecutive number of the cask, and the name or other distinctive mark or trade mark of the distillery.
 
### 109. Registering of casks etc.
 - Numbers may be assigned to casks in series in the order that they are filled for issue thus-A 1 to A 1,000, B 1 to B 1,000 and so on, instead of from 1 to 10,000 or higher number. The full capacity may be 1 to 10,000 or higher number. The full capacity may be weighment.
 
### 110. Casks and drums returned to distillery to be re-gauged and re-numbered.
 - Any cask or drum on being returned to the distillery for refilling must be gauged and numbered as if an entirely new receptacles.
 
### 111. Procedure in gauging by weight.
 - The procedure to ascertain the capacity of a cask or drum by weighment is given in the Technical Excise Manual, paragraph 187. The register referred to therein is prescribed in Form R.D. 10.
 
### 112. Selling of issue vessels.
 - All vessels containing spirit, other than duty-paid foreign spirit shall, before issue, be sealed by the officer-in-charge before issue of a pass. When spirit passes through a higher duty zone to a lower duty area, issues shall only be allowed in sound casks free from the necessary holes. The holes actually in use in all casks must be sealed in all cases. The duty of preparing the casks for sealing to satisfaction of the officer-in-charge falls upon the distiller. The duty of the officer-in-charge is simply to do the sealing. The seal used should be a hollow lead disc, which, on compression in the sealer supplied by the department, will confine the strands of wire and will be impressed with the excise mark. Where the bung is cut level with the staves, instead of using stretched wire and lead seal, it is permissible to use a tape or string stretched across the bung, and sealed at both ends by impressed sealing wax. The wax must lie in counter sunk holes and the tape and seals must be protected by having a piece of tin tracked over them.
 
 F-Instructions for Maintaining Forms and Registers
 
### 113. General rules to observed.
 - The prescribed Registers and Forms of accounts are not to be deviated from or added to without the special orders of the Excise Commissioner. All fractions of litres and of degree of strength are to be shown to the nearest first point of decimals. To preserve uniformity, the system of increasing the first figures of decimals by one when the second is 5 or more should be adopted in proof conversions.
 
 Overwriting and erasures are forbidden, any necessary corrections must be clearly made and must be initialed.
 
### 114. Certain Registers open to Distillers.
 - Distiller or their authorised agents should on a written requisition to the officer-in-charge be permitted to see the registers R.D. 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and B.W.L. 2. They are at liberty to bring to notice and to appeal in writing against any entry therein to which they may object, but this must be done within one week of the date of the entry having been made. If any corrections are necessary in these registers, they must be made in red ink and must be initialed and dated by the officer-in-charge and the distiller or his authorised agent, must be simultaneously invited by written notice to note them.
 
### 115. Stocks Register of Government property.
(1) A stock book of all property belonging to Government and kept at the distillery must be maintained in Form R.D. 4. Separate pages should be allotted to-
 
(a) furniture;
 
(b) excise locks;
 
(c) hydrometers, saccharometers, thermometers and test glasses;
 
(d) litre measures, bung rods and other measuring appliances;
 
(e) books; and
 
(f) miscellaneous.
 
 All sets of instruments in boxes should be recorded as complete set and not by items. No item is to be written off except under the order and signature of the District Excise Officer.
 
(2) Whenever an Excise Inspector/Assistant Excise Officer takes over charge of distillery, he must verify each article in the stock register and give a formal certificate that this has been done, should any article be missing or be unfit for use, he should report accordingly to the District Excise Officer.
 
(3) All loss, damage or breakage should be reported at once to the District Excise Officer concerned under intimation to the Excise Commissioner.
 
(4) At his periodical inspections the District Excise Officer should examine the stock book and he should compare not less than once a year all appliances used for proving and gauging with the standard instruments and measures in his possession. A note showing the result of the comparison should be made in the column of remarks.
 
### 116. Officer-in-charge's diary-Form R.D.5.
 - A diary in Form R.D. 5 is to be kept by the officer-in-charge. In it he will record in ink the date, the exact hour of his arrival at, and departure from, the distillery and of his opening and closing of the warehouse. He will also, in the same manner, record therein all gauges, proofs and gravities taken in surveying the manufacturing operations of the distillery, the various transactions in connection with lock tickets the particulars of his night visits to the distillery (which should be made not less often than twice a week at irregular intervals and between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.) and all other action taken by him in reference to his duties. Particular attention must be given to this book as it forms the basis for the maintenance of Form R.D. 9. The various entries must be made on the spot and the time, a short explanatory note being made in the 'remarks' column opposite each. One line must be allotted to each entry and no interlineation or erasures is allowed. Alterations must be made in red ink and initialed. Superior officers inspecting distilleries should invariably initial the diary after entry of such remarks as they find necessary and should append to their initials the hour and date of their visits.
 
### 117. Monthly round by the officer-in-charge.
 - The officer-in-charge of a distillery shall, once in every month, carefully inspect the entire distillery enclosure to ensure that there is no opening, passage or crack in any building, receptacle or pipe through which liquor could be extracted unlawfully. Every such inspection should be noted in the officer-in-charge's diary. Any defect noticed in the course of the inspection should be reported immediately to the District Excise Officer.
 
### 118. Gauge Register of receivers, vats and wash backs Forms R.D. 6 and 7.
 - Gauge registers of receivers, vats and wash-backs must be complied from the figures obtained in the gauging of the vessels. Receivers and vats will be entered in Register R.D. 6 whilst in the case of wash-backs, where the measurements are in dry centimetres from the top, Register R.D. 7 will be used.
 
### 119. Distillers declaration of wash form R.D. 8.
 - Distillers must thoroughly dissolve the saccharine materials used by them when they set up the wash, and declare in Form R.D. 8 the kind and quantity of material used, the actual saccharometric gravity corrected for temperature before fermentation commenced and the total quantity of wash made.
 
### 120. Wash and spirit outturn Form R.D. 9.
 - All data for the maintenance of the wash and spirit outturn register will be got from records R.D. 5 and 8, the results of each distillation being entered from time to time as it is completed.
 
 Unless otherwise directed, the officer-in-charge need only ascertain the gravities on the day when the wash is set up and when it goes to the still.
 
 The 'attenuation' of the wash is the number of degrees on the Saccharometer by which the highest or initial gravity and the final or lowest one differ. Thus in the case of wash with initial gravity of 60 degree and final one of 20 degree the attenuation would be 40 degree and the calculation for column 20 would be as follow:-
 
 Multiply the proof litres of spirit outturned (column 18) by 100; divide the product by the number of litres of wash made (column 4); by the figures thus obtained divide the degrees of attenuation (column 5 minus column 6) the quotient will be the result required i.e. the degree of attenuation for each litre of proof spirit per 450 litres of wash.
 
 Example. - 1,200 litres of wash initial gravity 60 degree final gravity 20 degree proof spirit outturned 96 litres.
 
|  |
| --- |
| 
 Thus 96 x| 1001200| =| 60-208| =| 408| = 5
  |
 In other words the out turn of proof of spirit is 8 litres per 100 litres of wash and as the production of this percentage is accompanied by a loss of gravity of 400 the wash has attenuated 50 for each litre of proof spirit obtained.
 
 Where the working is satisfactory and the wash thoroughly exhausted of its spirit, the result should invariably be between 4 and 5, never above the latter figure. In other words, the outturn should never be below the minimum yield. Any great variation from this standard should be explained in column 21, as should also any considerable variation in the spirit outturn from either single or combined distillation.
 
 When the spirit from two or more lots of wash is collected in one receiver the quantities of wash used (column-4) should be bracketed together and the spirit out turn be shown, together with all the necessary calculations on one line only. The average attenuation would, of course, be calculated on the whole of the wash used.
 
 Officer-in-charge should ensure the thorough mixing of the raw materials in the wash before taking the initial gravity. The highest gravity, as declared by the distiller, or found by the officer-in-charge is to be taken as the basis of account.
 
 In order to ascertain the yield from a single distillation, the number of litre of wash distilled should first be multiplied by the degrees of attenuation; the product should then be divided by 400 to give the maximum yield and by 500 to give the minimum yield. Thus in the example given above if the outturn had not been known-
 
(a) the maximum yield should be 120 L.P.
 
(b) the minimum yield should be 96 L.P.
 
 Note. - Paragraphs 29 to 35, 55 to 58 and rule 119 may be relaxed in the case of distilleries working with pot still by the permission of the Excise Commissioner.
 
### 121. Fermentation and distillation Register R.D. 9-A and the monthly statement in respect thereof.
 - With a view to improve the efficiency of distilleries, all the distillers will maintain a 'Fermentation and Distillation Register in Form R.D. 9-A. In order to ensure watch over the improvement in the working of distilleries, relevant information from this register will be furnished to the Excise Commissioner. Accordingly a monthly statement of 'fermentation and distillation efficiency' in the distilleries in the form prescribed shall be submitted to the Excise Commissioner, Rajasthan, by every distiller.
 
### 122. Weighment Register form R.D. 10.
 - Issues by weighment are recorded in the weighment register, the object being to ascertain the contents of each cask or drum as consigned. Before any spirit is put into a drum or cask, the weight of each cask empty with its screw plug or bung should be ascertained and recorded in column 3 of the register. After the cask or drum is filled to the bung, the distiller may be permitted to draw off, a measured quantity from the full cask before the bung is finally inserted. In such cases, the quantity drawn off should be recorded in column 9. The gross weight of the cask or drum shall then be ascertained and recorded in column 4. The other columns are self explanatory. Columns 11 and 12 need not be filled in when issues are made in metal drums.
 
### 123. Register in form R.D. 11.
 - All Issues, other than at fixed strengths, whether on pass or not, will be recorded in register R.D. 11. Gauge and proof of each issue must be recorded therein immediately after they are taken. After issues are completed, the appropriate entries in Registers R.D. 12, 13 and 14 must be made. Issues at fixed strengths will be recorded in Register B.W.L. 2 and the totals thereof in R.D. 12.
 
 Abstract of registers R.D. 11 and B.W.L. 5 will be forwarded to the District Excise Officer of the district in which the distillery is situated at the close of each month. They must show the total issues ex-distillery to the district and be supported by receipted treasury challan showing amount of duty deposited by the distiller and distiller's application in Form R.D. 18, 19 and 20 and by the 'account current' in Form R.D. 22. These enclosures except treasury challan will after examination be returned by the District Excise Officer to the distillery and deposited there.
 
 Issues to other districts must be shown underneath the district abstract in full detail.
 
### 124. Warehouse ledger for plain and rectified spirit, Form R.D.
 - The register for plain and rectified spirit is maintained to show how plain and rectified spirits are disposed off after receipt into the warehouse stock.
 
 The entry in column 2 must be made in Form R.d. 9. Other columns need no instructions. At the end of each calendar month actual balance must be taken from Form B.W.L. 5 and monthly wastage ascertained and recorded.
 
### 125. Ledger for denatured spirit, Form R.D. 13.
 - In maintaining the ledger for denatured spirit the figures for column 1 are obtained from B.W.L. 5.
 
 Issues of spirit from the warehouse of from the spirit receiver to the denaturing room for denaturation will, in the first place, be recorded in the appropriate columns of register R.D. 11, the total L.P. litres being recorded thereafter in column 5 of register R.D. 12, and column 6 of this register (R.D. 13). Account taken for issues, after denaturation will be recorded in the appropriate columns of R.D. 11 after which the entries appropriate to each issue will be recorded in the columns provided for the purpose in this register (R.D. 13). Stock is taken monthly in accordance with paragraph 12.
 
### 126. Ledger for sophisticated spirit.
 - The figures for column 1 of R.D. 14 will be obtained from register B.W.L. 5. Issue of plain spirit from the warehouse for sophistication either in cask at time of issue or in vat for subsequent issue, will, in the first place, be recorded in columns 5, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of register R.D. 11 the appropriate entries being made, thereafter in column 5 of register (R.D. 12) and columns 2 to 8 of this register (R.D. 14). Issues after sophistication will be recorded in columns 7, 8, 9, 10 and 13 of R.D. 11 and afterwards in the appropriate columns of this register (R.D. 14). The stock of sophisticated spirit remaining at the end of each month will be taken in accordance with paragraph 12 and a balance struck in this register.
 
### 127. Stock book form B.W.L. 5.
 - The particulars of the gauges etc., taken at the monthly stock taking will be recorded in Form B. W.L. 5. A total will be made of the L.P. litres remaining of each class of spirit to enable balance to be struck in Forms R.D. 12, 13 and 14.
 
### 128. Registers of bonds form R.D. 17.
 - A register of bonds will be maintained in Form R.D. 17 and every issue in bond will, on the day it is made, be entered in this register. On the receipt of intimation that t he consignment has duly arrived, column 6 of the register will be filled in, and the bond, so far as that consignment is concerned, will be discharged.
 
 As soon as the entries relating to a consignment are complete, the officer-in-charge will draw a red line through them. He will thus be able to see at a glance the quantity of spirit that is in transit, and to restrict issues to the amount covered by the bond.
 
### 129. Register of issue of spirits against advance deposit of duty form R.D. 21.
 - The following instructions are to be observed in maintaining Form R.D. 21.
 
 On the strength of the receipt granted at the foot of Form R.D. 19 the officer-in-charge of the distillery will make the necessary entries in Form R.D. 21 by crediting the distiller with the amount of the advance and debiting him with the duty on the quantity of spirit removed from time to time. As each entry is made, the amount of all the issues entered on the same will be totaled; and it will be the duty of the officer-in-charge to see that such total is not allowed to exceed the total of the entries of balance and of fresh advances appearing at the head of the page. He should also daily send a memorandum to the manager of the distillery of the amount standing to the distiller's credit, so that the latter may replenish his advance, if necessary. No balance need ever be struck in register except when the bottom of a page is reached in which the balance then standing to credit will be carried forward to a fresh page. Particulars of issues made against advance payments will be entered in the register of issues R.D. 11, in the usual course, in column 16 the word 'advance' will be noted. At the end of each month the officer-in-charge will submit to the District Excise Officer together with the abstract of register R.D. 11 an 'account current' of excise duty paid in advance in Form R.D. 22.
