If your repacked  products are specified under section 2(f)(iii) of the CEA,1944, than you can avail cenvat credit and pay excise duty

Hi,

As Mr.Rakshit pointed out, it should come with in the meaning of manufacture.

The following inputs which may be useful to you.

As per Excise rules, in respect of the manufacturing process, 
- There should be inputs (raw materials)
- They should be subjected to processing.
- As a result a new product quite different from the inputs should be obtained.
- The Finished Product must have a distinct Name, Character and Usage quite different from the inputs. 

In your case, it seems to be you are not doing the above process.

Therefore, you are not supposed to take credit and you have to clear the products on dealer basis with duly registered. 

In case you are clearing the materials As such which is procured for your own use, then  you may remove it on reversal of cenvat credit whatever you have availed.

Repacking amounts to manufacture u/s 2(f) only in respect of certain commodities specified under Schedule III of Central Excise Act, 1944. If your product is covered there under, you can take credit and charge excise duty on the goods sold by you. However, if it is not covered there, since the process undertaken does not amount to manufacture nor since the inputs are sold as such, you will not be in a position to take the credit at all. For further clarification, pl specify the product and chapter heading.
