Excise Registration
Central Excise Duty refers to the duty which is imposed on the production or manufacture of all excisable goods. Excisable goods are portable and marketable goods that are listed or mentioned in the Schedules to the Central Excise Tariff Act. In order to obtain registration for Central Excise Duty, application for registration needs to be filed with the Superintendent of Central Excise. The superintendent should have the jurisdiction over the premises whereof the registration is to be obtained.
The Central Excise Act provides and mandates that every person involved in the manufacture or production of excisable goods shall be registered with the Central Excise Department. Registration is done one time and also it doesn’t need to be renewed.
