Dear  Mr. Kapoor ,

   Yes, u can but u can take credit on purshases after you cross the threshhold limit of 1.5 Cr. In addition to this , u can take credit of inuts lying in stock or  inputs contained in Finished goods or inputs contained in WIP ( on the day u cross threshhold limit .)

Thank you for the reply sir . 

If i make myself satisfied, then,  purchases made after 150 lacs will only be eligible for cenvat credit??

Is that the case Sir?

Will appreciate your prompt response :)

Mr. Parth,

  Point of taking Cenvat Credit in Central Excise is when inputs are received in the factory .

Suppose exact removal of your finished goods exceeds 150 lacs at  2.00 p.m 28.12.2013, u can take cenvat credit of inputs received in ur factory after 2.00 p.m .

I agree with replies by Mr. Rajesh Nathoo.

It would be better to have clear cut cut off time rather the date of crossing limit for all related purposes - clearance of goods, receipt / issue / availaing of goods and services as input.

Sir 

     Once you have crossed the SSI exemption limit of 150 lakhs and started payment of duty you can take credit of duty paid on inputs, inputs contained  in unsold stock of finished goods, inputs contained in work in progress etc.  You may also take 100 percent of duty paid on the capital goods in the same financial year when you have crossed the SSI exemption limit of 150 lakhs.
