When goods are manufactured and exported by a dta unit on behalf of an SEZ unit. Can the DTA Unit claim meis benefit, if the SEZ unit gives a declaration that it is not claiming MEIS under its name.

Here the catch is the DTA unit gets paid by the SEZ unit in foreign currecy and final remittance for the shipment to the foreign entity is received by the SEZ unit.
