Are-1 and excise bill for manufacturer to merchant exporter

Varun (Proprietor) (34 Points)

31 October 2012  

We are an excised manufacturing unit.

Our customer is a merchant exporter.

For our supplies to them, they submitted their ARE-1 and CT1 to us. What is the procedure for Export, Documentation and Invoicing?

i.e.

(1) Which ARE-1 Form copy is to be submitted to our Range and which has to be returned to the customer (Merchant Exporter)?

(2) Invoicing details - would duty be charged? The customer is insisting they would not need to pay excise as per our invoice. Please help to understand how the invoice should be made and what credits would be obtained? And how these would be entered. 

(3) Would a commercial invoice be required for the same?

Appreciate a quick reply to the same.

 

Thanks in advance.
