For tobacco pouches priced up to Rs 2, the excise output will be deemed at 1.12–3.36 crore pouches per month, based on machine speed, with faster machines assessed through a multiplier formula tied to their declared capacity. For pouches priced above Rs 2, lower but significant deemed outputs apply — 1.01–3.03 crore pouches per month, rising further for high-speed machines under a separate, multiplier-based calculation.
