Exporters avail benefits under schemes like the Merchandise Export from India Scheme (MEIS), Services export from India Scheme (SEIS), Rebate of State Levies (RoSL) and Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (ROSCTL).
Depending on the nature of services and product, the government gives duty credit scrips or certificates to exporters. These scrips can be transferred or used for payment of a number of duties including the basic customs duty.
Trade would be suitably informed once issuance of scrips opens again, the notification added.
