Duty payment timing: electronic payments face earlier due dates; interest and monthly penalty apply for delayed excise duty payment. Rule 8 sets deadlines and modes for payment of central excise duty: monthly payments are due by early days of the following month with earlier deadlines for electronic banking; March removals have a distinct due date. Eligible small assessees may pay quarterly by similar electronic or non-electronic deadlines for the whole financial year. Payment is deemed discharged only on credit to the Central Government account; cheques count from presentation subject to realization. Electronic payment is required unless waived in writing. Late payment attracts interest, a monthly penalty after one month, and statutory recovery measures; duty includes CENVAT liabilities.
