Excise registration

Dear Experts,

We were the manufacturing company from the year 2001 to 2008 and were under the excise rules & regulation.

2008 onwards we stop manufacturing and became only labour job company and in the year we also surrendered our excise registration

Now from the April, we want to start again as a manufacturing company and we have to again register with Excise department

So, my query is:

Our excise liability will arise after our turnover crosses Rs.3 crrore ? or from the very first sale we make ?

Thank you all
