For the purpose of rule 6 or 6(3) of the cenvat credit rules, 2004, export is not treated as exempted goods. You need to reverse the cenvat credit in respect of exempted goods cleared for domestic purpose. Further, with regard to export, in case you have accumulated credit of cenvat credit which can not be utilized due to export, you can claim refund under rule 5 of the CCR, 2004.

Rule 6(6)((v) of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 is specific that provision of reversal of Cenvat credit or payment of 5% would not arise if the excisable goods are cleared for export under bond. On the removal of exempted goods to DTA, reversal of proportionate Cenvat credit or 5% payment would be applicable

I agree with both replies. you need not to reverse entire credit only proportionte credit on dta sale is required to be reveresed and balance credit can be refunded under rule 5 of CCR, 2004
