The Chennai Customs IV (Export) Commissionerate announced automation of refund application and processing, effective April 1, 2025. The system enables electronic filing of refund applications on ICEGATE portal, eliminating manual processing. Key features include electronic scrutiny, deficiency notification within 10 days, digital communication of orders, and direct deposit of refunds to registered bank accounts via PFMS. The reform replaces concurrent audit with post-audit procedures for all refund claims. During the transition period until March 31, 2025, applicants may file refunds either manually or electronically. After this date, manual applications will require special approval from the Commissioner. This initiative aligns with CBIC's digitization goals to reduce trade costs and processing time.
