Rule 12 of the Central Excise Rules, 2002 Sub-rule (1), every assessee is required to submit a monthly return in proper form of production or removal of goods and other relevant particulars to the superintendent of Central Excise, within ten days after the close of the month to which the return relates. It has also been provided that where an assessee is availing the exemption under a notification based on the value of clearances in a financial year, he shall file a quarterly return in proper form of production and removal of goods and other relevant particulars within twenty days after the close of the quarter to which the return relates. According to Notification, the return is required to be filed in quintuplicate in Form ER-1 (EOU/EPZ/SEZ units are required to file return in Form ER-2). For SSIs Form ER-3 has been prescribed. If there is delay in payment of duty, interest should also be deposited before filing ER-1 return. This return is acknowledged by Superintendent of Central Excise and one copy duly acknowledged is returned to the assessee.

Thannx A Lot Mr Joshi I have also one query that we did not filed the return for this year (Two Quarters) in Form ER-2. So what the penalty amount should we have to Pay!!!!
Infact the above quarterly returns recommended by you those are also not filled in the last year also
Hence wr are not liable to pay the excise duty so we have to pay the Interest or any type of Penalty. Please recommended any sections for the penalty and Interest (If we have to pay)
