MERCHANT EXPORTS DOCS IN CENTRAL EXCISE

[Guest]

I am a Merchant Exporter. i am not registered under Central excise. I have received an Export Order for Exciseable goods in which the Buyer wishes to conduct Monetary deals with me. I want to source the goods from a manufacturer and have it stuffed at his factory and give his name on the Shipping Bill as Manufacturer Exporter, while paying him in local Currency.

In such case:

1. Do I need to give CT 1 & ARE form for removal of goods (even though it is being stuffed at his factory and his name is mentioned on the Shipping Bill as Manufacturer Exporter).

2. Am I entitled to get the Drawback & Incentives under MEIS as being the Merchant Exporter and beneficiary of Foreign Remittance against exports.

1) You need to give CT-1 and ARE-1 with your sign and stamp to your manufacture supplier.name of supplier on shipping bills not restricted your any export benefit. it appear in shipping bills likes " supporting manufacturer" ...

2) Are you eligalbe to get both benefit. as a merchant exporter.

AI Summary

Merchant exporters must provide CT 1 and ARE 1 signed and stamped for removals even when goods are stuffed at the manufacturer and the shipping bill names the manufacturer; the shipping bill nomination does not bar export benefits. A merchant exporter who receives foreign remittance may claim drawback and MEIS incentives, subject to applicable procedural and documentary requirements.
