Brand Rate Drawback requirement: exporters must submit sanction or attested application copies or claims may be treated as not pursued. Exporters and customs brokers must submit either the Brand Rate sanction/fixation order from the jurisdictional Central Excise Commissionerate or, if not yet fixed, a copy of the application filed with a self-declaration that the Brand Rate remains unfixed; both documents must be attested by the jurisdictional DC/AC of Central Excise. Failure to submit by the deadline will result in pending Brand Rate drawback shipping bills being disposed of as not pursued.
