Excise duty benefit to exporters

Sir,

We are involved in export of products bought from the market to various countries. Some of these products have inbuilt excise duty but we are not registered with Central Excise. Also, we claim duty drawback on the exported goods.

I would like to know if, after registering with the Central Excise, we can claim cenvat refund along with the drawback on the exported goods for which we have paid excise duty. Also, will the cenvat credit be accumulated and passed on to the next financial year or we can claim the refund.

Best Regards

Atul
