Hi we are purchasing steel pipes and converting into the steel furniture like chair, table . sofa, reeling etc... on order of Customer. Is this manufacturing ? Should I Register? If I don't want to consider as mfg. then what option available?

Yes, it would amount to manufacture and ED would be payable on the same. However you can avail SSI exemption upto Rs 1.5 crore. You ll be liable for ED after crossing 1.5 crore and should get registered in Excise by then. There are few exemptions with regard to furnitures and part thereof used for medical purposes. In case you need more details you are free to mail me on my id.
