03 April 2016 Dear all, I have a very simple doubt. Lets say I have manufactured goods and have paid excise duty, now I sold the goods and charged excise duty to the customer, so the excise duty what I collected from customer is it to be paid again to the govt? If not, how would be the treatment?

If you sale to customer on 100 & Excise say Rs. 10 then Rs. 10 you have to pay. & You purchase for 90 & Duty say Rs. 9 then overall you have to pay Rs. 1 (10-9) only.

03 April 2016 But sir in my case, I am not purchasing anything. I am a manufacturer and while transferring finished goods to warehouse I paid excise duty (as factory gate is my place of removal), and then I sold such goods and collected excise duty. Now what to do with such duty which I collected from customer?
