Our 8 Essential Export Incentives and Refund Services
1. IGST Refund Services
Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) refund is an important mechanism for eligible exporters who supply goods on payment of integrated tax.
Refund processing may face delays because of mismatches between shipping bills, GST returns, export invoices or customs records.
Our IGST refund assistance includes:

Our Export Incentives and Refund Services help exporters identify the causes of refund delays and pursue appropriate corrections under applicable GST and Customs procedures.
2. Duty Drawback (DBK) Services
Duty Drawback is a customs benefit designed to provide relief for eligible duties associated with exported goods, according to the applicable drawback provisions.
However, inaccurate declarations, missing documents or processing discrepancies may delay eligible drawback claims.

The Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) Scheme aims to remit specified eligible duties, taxes and levies embedded in exported products that are not otherwise refunded or credited.
Benefits depend on factors such as product classification, eligibility, applicable rates, value caps and the relevant export period.

5. Incentive Reconciliation & Corrections
Export incentive reconciliation is essential for identifying differences between claimed amounts, processed benefits and available transaction records.
Discrepancies may arise because of incorrect shipping bill information, product classifications or mismatched supporting documents.
Our reconciliation services include:

Incorrect declarations or documentation mismatches may affect the processing of eligible incentive claims.
Our shipping bill correction assistance includes:

7. eBRC & Export Realisation Linkage for Incentives
The Electronic Bank Realisation Certificate (eBRC) helps establish export realization information for purposes where such evidence is required.
Discrepancies between export invoices, remittance information and realization records can affect certain benefit claims and compliance processes.
Our support includes:
