Thanks Mr.Banerjee for SSI exemption details. However, my question is not answered in this detail.Actually i wanted to know : 1.the format of declaration to be filed after crossing turnover of Rs 90 lacs and 2.the manner of filing such declaration,i.e., whether we can continue with our sales or should we stop our sales after 90 lacs until such declaration is filed.
Thanks

Format of declaration you can find in any central excise manual. Although declaration should be filed after crossing the limit of 90 lakhs, there is no need to stop production- just go and file a declaration.
