Duty free import Authorisation

Eligibility

Duty drawback
Duty drawback is a special rebate on exported goods or materials under Section 75 of the Indian Customs Act. Only products utilised in the processing of commodities manufactured in India and then exported to other countries are eligible for duty drawback rates or concessions.
It does not apply to inputs obtained without paying customs or excise duties. Re-exports of products must be completed within two years after the date of duty payment when they were imported. The Directorate of Drawback, Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance, and Government of India set all industry drawback rates, which are amended on a regular basis – usually on June 1 each year.
