Query CT1 exports, Central Excise

[Rajan Rajan]

Dear Sirs,

We have exported against CT1 to XYZ co., till date this consignment lying in XYZ warehouse. More than one year. Not exported due to some unavoidable reasons.

We are the manufacturer exporter. Actual exporter is XYZ and under against their Bond only, CT1 issued to us.

So, far not received admission of proof of exports from XYZ. In this case, Who should pay duty, XYZ or manufacturer exporter.

Please advise

Dear Rajan,

Your merchant exporter is responsible to Pay the duty.

Initial goods exported from your factory under CT-1. so you need not worry about the proof of export. your merchant exporter had submitted bond to concern authority for getting the CT-1 for export, and it is his responsibility to submit the proof of export against CT-1. if your Merchant exporter not submitting the POE with in six month CT-1 issuing authority will recover the duty from Merchant Exporter.
