Dear Mr. Kumar,

The rebate claim is to be applied within 12 months from the date of export. You seem to have crossed that time limit (as your ARE-1 is of March 2014).

As regards taking CENVAT credit, kindly let me understand as to how have you paid the duty on such export of goods.

Regards

Pritesh

Yes sir, application is to be made in one year period from the date of export of goods.

You cannot avail cenvat credit on your own, for the export made by under rebate claim.

Also refer to section 11B of Central Excise Act, 1944.
