E filing of excise returns

By Vijay Kumar

Ahmedabad Central Excise Commissioner has clarified that ER1, ER2 and ER3 returns filed online can be corrected if necessary.

The assessee, who wants to cancel their return and re file the same, has to request the jurisdictional Assistant Commissioner in writing giving the detailed reasons for cancellation of the return. They have to mention the Location Code, ECC Code and period of the return. A copy of such letter may also be given to the jurisdictional Range Superintendent. After receipt of such letter and after confirming the genuineness of the letter, the jurisdictional Assistant Commissioner will cancel the said return and he will intimate the assessee the fact of cancellation of the return via fax / e-mail.

Now, the assessee can re-file the cancelled return.

The Commissioner requests the trade take advantages of this facility of e-filing.
