HC ruled that exporters are entitled to duty drawbacks when exporting unlocked mobile phones. Following M/s AIMS Retail Services Private Limited precedent, the court determined that merely unlocking a mobile phone does not constitute "taking into use" under the Duty Drawback Rules, as phones can be utilized in multiple ways.
