Merchant Exporters Must Submit Proof of Export Under Bond; Manufacturers Responsible Under Letter of Undertaking In a discussion about the responsibility for submitting proof of export when exporting through a merchant exporter, it was clarified that if the export is conducted under a bond executed by the merchant exporter, the merchant is responsible for providing proof to the Central Excise department. Conversely, if the export is under a letter of undertaking by the manufacturer, the manufacturer must submit the proof. This was supported by multiple contributors, who agreed that the obligation depends on the type of document executed for the export. (AI Summary)
