Dear Shivaraj,

You would have to get CT-1 form from the Jurisdictional Commissioner/Deputy Commissioner/Asstt. Commissioner as the case may be after executing the General Bond along-with Surety/security and handed over this CT-1 to your supplier with duly signed ARE-1 form to the supplier of the Raw material. Supplier would submit a copy of the CT-1 to their jurisdictional Central Excise Department.

Material may directly be shipped to the port by the supplier as per your instruction along with the supplier's excise invoice and duly filled ARE-1. After that you may raise your export invoice and packing list.

On the Shipping Bill you would have to incorporate the name of the manufacturer/supplier. You would have to file the proof of export and duly acknowledged copy of the same would be provided to the supplier for his future use.

Yes, the above procedure is to be followed.

However, before executing B-1 Bond, it is advisable to get Registration Cum Membership Certificate (RCMC) for your firm, so that u do not have to execute Bank Guarantee for the said Bond.
