From the rates announced so for we can understood that all silk fabrics are taxable including silk sarees manufactured through handloom, which are at present exempted from both VAT and Central Excise. Whatever rates announced are general, however separate Notification may be issued in future to make Silk Sarees made through handloom to exempt.
