Dear Pranav. The blindness is definitely included in the catagory of handicaps. But, the question is whether any blind person has availed this facility. To the best of my knowledge (which may be very little) no body with visual impairment has been given this concession. I am very much convinced that the concession should be made available to the blind persons as well. With regards Mittal. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pranav Lal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Sent: Saturday, December 15, 2007 4:05 PM Subject: Re: [AI] excise duty exemption
