20 December 2013 Dear Sir / Mam,

I am a trader. I purchase packaging materials from a manufacturer and sell it to my client who has his unit at a SEZ which is an excise exempted zone.

Since my unit is not in a SEZ, the manufacturer bills us inclusive of excise.

And the same when I bill on to my client, he wants excise rebate.

What should I do?
