[SANJEEV JADHAV]

Dear Sirs, my question is regarding claim of depb against shipping bill amendment. Earlier one shipping bill generated in currency USD instead of Euro. Later on customs issued amendment to the shipping bill manually, where they have mentioned all corrected details. My problem is that at present while submission of DEPB application, DGFT system showing old data i.e data before amendment. In the said situation how can i claim DEPB of amendment shipping bill. Please guide me in this regard.

On the basis of amended Shipping bill you can claim DEPB.  Further, if it is EDI S/B then you would have to get it corrected in the systems.  For this you would have to present your case to the Hon'ble Commissioner of Customs and simultaneously to the DGFT about this mistake and subsequent amendment with all relevant documents.

AI Summary

DEPB claim based on amended shipping bill permitted; correct EDI records and submit supporting documents to relevant agencies. DEPB entitlement may be claimed on the basis of an amended shipping bill; if EDI records show pre-amendment data, seek formal correction of system records and submit the amendment with all supporting documents to the relevant customs administration and the trade regulator responsible for DEPB.
