<h1>India Launches RoDTEP Scheme to Boost Export Competitiveness by Rebating Unrefunded Duties from January 2021.</h1> The Government has implemented the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) Scheme from January 1, 2021, to enhance export competitiveness by refunding embedded Central, State, and local duties/taxes not previously rebated. Exporters will receive credits in their Customs ledger, usable for paying Basic Customs duty on imports or transferable to others. The Department of Commerce will announce RoDTEP rates based on a committee's recommendations. Exporters must declare their intent to use the scheme for each export item, subject to conditions and exclusions. The rates apply to all eligible exports from January 1, 2021, regardless of notification date.
