Notification No. 45/2025-Customs is construed strictly: DSIR recognition is a necessary but not sufficient condition, because the importer must also show that each item is a notified consumable, essential for approved research, supported by the prescribed certificate, and actually used for the stated end use. On that basis, pre-Exhibit Batch R&D imports consumed or substantially used in experimentation, formulation, validation and related research can qualify, subject to full compliance with the conditions. Imports linked to the Exhibit Batch do not qualify if the goods are transferred to the manufacturing facility, or if the manufacturing facility itself imports them, because the eligible importer requirement and transfer prohibition are not met.
