AI Summary

SSI exemption: registration not required below prescribed turnover; concessional duty option available until a higher turnover threshold.
Eligibility for excise exemption under the SSI framework depends on the preceding financial year turnover: if a manufacturing unit's prior-year turnover does not exceed the higher eligibility threshold, the unit may claim SSI exemption in the current year up to the lower turnover ceiling; turnover between the lower and higher ceilings may be subject to a concessional duty option, while crossing the higher ceiling removes entitlement to the SSI concession and attracts full excise liability.
