No. 333/33/93-TRU, dated 17-3-1994 wherein it was stipulated that SSI units having value of clearances less than Rs. 30 lacs need not file a declaration but can send a plain letter with name and address of manufacturer and description of excisable goods being manufactured by him by registered post to the Collector of Central Excise. 2.
