Trading in new product whether amendment in dealer registration required

[Yatin Bhopi]

Dear expert,

We are registered dealer under central excise. Now we wish to start trading activity in new product which was not mentioned at the time of obtaining dealer registration (in instruction no 15 of Form A-1, it is mentioned that we should mentioned major Three product under which we want to trade). hence we are assuming that there is no need to mentioned all products list manufactured / trade

Please let me know whether we need to amend our dealer registration certificate and add the new product? or there is no need to amend the registration certificate

Sir,

You need not amend your registration Certificate if you want to deal with a new product/excisable goods.

Sir, amending the certificate requires less time. It will help your you achieve compliance. Thanks.

Only intimation is required to be given to the jurisdictional Range Office/Division Office.

AI Summary

Dealer registration amendment not required for adding new excisable product, but intimation or amendment advised for compliance. A dealer need not amend the registration certificate to begin trading in a new excisable product added after initial registration, but must notify the jurisdictional Range/Division Office; alternatively, obtaining an amendment is a quick option to ensure formal compliance.
