In view of above, it is mandatory for you to file ER-4 and ER-7 if you are paying duty of ₹ 1 crore or above.

Filing of ER-5 AND ER-6 shall depend on the chapter tariff heading of your manufactured goods.

Sir,

E.R. 7 return is mandatory for all assessee whether SSI or non-SSI. In Chennai Region recently an SSI assessee had been issued with notice demanding late fee of ₹ 20.000/- for not filing ER.7 in time. However you may take up the issue with CBEC/Government through your trade association.

AI Summary

Annual return filing requirements: duty-threshold filers must submit ER-4 and ER-7; ER-5/ER-6 depend on input-related tariff classification.
Annual reporting obligations require ER-4 from assessees meeting the statutory duty threshold and ER-7 from assessees subject to statutory exclusions, while ER-5 and ER-6 obligations depend on tariff classification of manufactured goods; ER-6 is a monthly consumption return tied to ER-5 filers, and late filing can attract regulatory notices and late fees.
