When should be the first er-1 return be filed?

Dear Team,

Kinldy let me know when should any manufacturer file excise ER-1 returns for the first time?

Whether NIL returns should be filed when the company is recording the CENVAT availed before the start of Manufacturing process  or should it file the first return when the the exciseable product is manufactured?

Thanks & regards,

The company has to file excise return as per periodicity irrespective of whether the company has started manufacturing or not. Filling of return is mandatory after taking registration. If manufacturing is not started company should file nil return.

You can file nil return if you company has not started production and not taken cenvat credit during the month.  If you have availed cenvat credit you can file ER-1 with details of cenvat availment.
