The excise duty is payable only after reaching 1.5 crores but keep the department informed about the 1st quarter turnover in order to prove that your turnover has not crossed the SSI exemption limit. If needed by the Range Superintendent, you will have to file a declration or show turnover in the return in the exempted column. Pl meet the range people for better guidance.
