As understood, the first is stocks of raw materials. If so there is no excise duty as the same is not manufactured goods.
On finsihed goods if not removed and available in stcok the duty has tobedischarged. 150 lakhsexemption is available if the pr yr value of clearacnes ofmanufactured goods isless than 400 lakhs + other conditions.
