### **Example Scenario for ER-5 Filing:**
In your case, since you are involved in outsourcing and merely relabeling and repacking auto parts without manufacturing new goods, you would still need to report the total duty paid during the financial year. Even though you are not manufacturing new products, the reporting of duty paid remains a requirement.
By following these steps, you should be able to correctly file the ER-5 form. If you have specific questions or encounter issues related to the form, referring to the CBEC-GST portal's FAQs or consulting with a professional could provide additional clarity.
