The Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) is a government-sponsored scheme designed to provide a level-playing field to Indian exporters. The scheme replaces the existing Merchandise Export from India Scheme (MEIS) and provides a refund of various duties and taxes paid by exporters on exported goods.
Under the RoDTEP scheme, exporters are provided with a refund of various duties and taxes that are not reimbursed under any other export promotion scheme. These include duties such as basic customs duty, central excise duty, and service tax, as well as local taxes and levies that are not eligible for input tax credit.
The RoDTEP scheme applies to all goods exported from India, except those covered under other export promotion schemes. The percentage of refund under the scheme varies depending on the product and the country of export.
To be eligible for RoDTEP, the exporter must comply with various rules and regulations, including the Foreign Trade Policy, the Export and Import Policy, and other applicable laws and regulations. The exporter must also provide the necessary documentation, such as shipping bills, invoices, and other relevant documents.
