but Mr. Sharma...excise is also applicable on packing or repacking or labeling or relabeling of goods for sale..

so i want to know whether it is applicable to us or not in this case.....

Packing for courier is not packing/repacking of goods.

However, if you are putting your brand, or putting MRP etc., it amounts to manufacture and excise duty is payable.
