Rejection of excise return

[S.C. WADHWA]

Dear Expert,

Our ER1 filed on line was rejected with remarks"Some Technical error in your server so our ER1 rejected" This massage received. Later on when we contacted with excise deptt and came to know that on 10.3.15 from 3 P.M there server was got out of order. Now my query is whether we upload once again our ER1 and the same will be treated in time or not. Please advise.

Regards,

WADHWA

Sir,

please contact your range superintendent and write to letter address to him and inform fact what difficulty you had faced.

While writing to Range, you may also forward hard copy of the return by Registered Post so that to prove there is no delay from your side.

AI Summary

Timely filing: notify range superintendent and send a hard copy by registered post to evidence server-related delay.
Recommended procedural measures are to notify the range superintendent in writing describing the technical difficulty and to dispatch a hard copy of the return by registered post to create proof that the return was attempted within the prescribed time, thereby aiming to preserve evidence of timely filing where electronic submission fails due to a departmental server outage.
