20 August 2011 as you hold registration, but intimated regarding stop of production, you were eligible for filing returns under ER-1/Er-3 as applicable.

8/2003 is option to avail value based exemption of 1st clearances upto 150 lacs, subject to submission of option to Range Superintendent before 1st clearance in any financial year, and such option can not be switched during the financial year.

9/2003 ( not in force now), represents that assesee has not availed benefits of 8/2003, but paying duty from 1st clearance and/or availing input credit.

under excise audit you may face trouble if records are not maintained, as its mandatory to maintain records for every registration holder. ( you may get relief for closure period)
