16 July 2011 Sir, i am not able to understand how you had applied rule 6 of CCR 2004. Rule 6 talks about only availability or non-availability of cenvat credit if final product is exempt.

Further, i want to know whether a dealer is able to pass on duty paid on opening stock-in-trade prior registration.

17 July 2011 goods procured as a unregisred dealer means no entry in manufacturer's house in the dealers registration

what would be opening balance of RG23D for issuing invoice?

if the range officer at the time of dealer registration, allows specifically, the entry in RG23D after scurtiny of manufacturer invoice to enter in RG23D, then only you can issue cenvatable invoice, otherwise not
