Excise return

My Query is regarding excise return for SSI Units.

It is mentioned in the law that the units availing value based exemption can file the quarterly return in Form no ER-3 on or before 20th of the month following the quarter. 

Is it means SSI Units i.e. the units whose turnover in the previous financial year is less than 4 Crore.

One of our client is SSI Unit and filing quarterly return in Form No ER-3 but while filing the return an error message comes that return is filed late. But as per my knowledge ER-3 is to be filed on or before 20th of the month following the quarter, hence I am filing it within the due date.

Looking forward for the reply from experts soonest possible. 

Thanks in advance
