12 January 2012 Dear Sir,

I Am An Importer And In Order To Pass On Duty Benefit To My Customers To Whom I Sell Imported (Goods) Items Directly , I Have Also Registered As A Dealer With Central Excise.

I Have Issued Invoices Which Need To Be Filed For My Quarterly Return.

In The “Dealer Return - Invoices Issued, Received " Page Under Heading :Invoices Issued By First Stage/Second Stage Dealer " I Could Entree All The Invoices Issued By Me.

In The "Document Based On Which The Credit Is Passed On" I Have Entered Bill Of Entry Number, Date Issued By Importer. Under Column “Registration Number", When I Enter My Registration Number - My Firm Name And Address “And Press Submit Button, I Receive The Message " Assessee Cannot Enter His/her Own Registration Number In: Documents Based On Which The Credit Is Passed." And Hence I Cannot Complete My Return and Submit.

My Principals From Whom I Import The Goods Are Not Registered With Aces And Hence Do Not Have Any Registration Number.

Thus I Am Unable To File Dealer Return,

When I Submit Manual Return With Department They Are Saying Do E-Filing.

So Kindly Help Us to File E-Return On Time,

Thank You

03 October 2012 Earlier, dealers who imported goods or purchased goods from other importers had difficulty in filing dealer returns in ACES, as the ACES application did not allow such dealers to mention their own Central Excise registration number, or the IEC Code of the importer in the column prescribed for mentioning the CE Registration number in the block "Documents based on which credit is passed on" in the dealer return . The application has now been modified, so that 1st or 2nd stage dealers who have either imported goods on their own or have purchased goods from other Importers can mention their own IEC code or the IEC Code of the importers in the prescribed column. The ACES application will verify if the IEC code is a valid one available in the database or not and in case of invalid IEC codes, the returns will be rejected. In case of rejection, the dealers can incorporate the correct IEC codes and e-file the return.
