dispatch of excisable Goods

[sanjay misra]

Dear Sir,

Can we remove the excisable goods from the factory on the Next day of the invoice date( In that case the date and time of removal on the invoice  will be shown as actual date of dispatch).Is there any compulsion in the excise Law to remove the goods on the same day invoice is made.

e.g

goods are invoiced on 26/09/11 . The stock is redueced accordingly in the computerised system.

Goods are physically dispatched on 27/09/11 with the date and time of removal shown in the invoice as 27/09/11 and date of preparation is shown as 26/09/11

You would have to intimate to the Concerned Central Excise Department and VAT Department in this regard.

If the date and time of removal is shown as 27.09.2011 and goods actually removed is also on 27.09.2011, in my view there should not be any problem, however as per my knowledge, such issue has not been made subject of law or any circular.

You have 24 hours after printing the Invoice to despatch the goods failing which you would have to inform the Excise Department.

Dear Sir.

 

We will print the invoice on the day of removal of goods not on the date of preparation of Invoice.

Dear Sir,

 

Since the date of preparation of the Invoice "as printed on the Invoice"  would be 26th September 2011 you would have 24 hours from that date and time to despatch the goods, irrespective of when you wish to print the invoice.

Dear Mr Das

Could you please let me know the provision of 24 Hrs time for actual dispatch from the date of issue of invoice.

[Sandeep Aggarwal]

Dear All,

We all know this to cancel the invoice if material not dispatched within 24 hours of Invoicing.

Please answer under which section/ rule/ circular/ notification invoice shall be cancelled if excisable material not dispatched within 24 hours. I have read Chapter 4 Part I of para 12.1 as well. It lays down the procedure to follow after cancellation of Invoice.

 

regards

AI Summary

Time limit for dispatch after invoicing affects excise compliance - notify authorities or cancel and reissue invoice if dispatch delayed.
The issue is whether excisable goods must be dispatched on the same day as invoice preparation or may be removed later if the invoice records the actual removal date and time. The discussion indicates practice-based measures: notify excise and VAT authorities if dispatch is delayed, or cancel and reissue the invoice where goods are not dispatched within the commonly referenced short interval after invoicing. No specific statutory provision or circular is cited in the forum to conclusively fix the permissible interval.
