Customs laws in India provide for a refund of duty on imports
November, 28th 2008
We are a firm of consultants advising numerous Indian and international companies on infrastructure projects.

Customs duty applicable on import of goods into India consists of four components, basic customs duty (BCD), additional customs duty (ACD) in lieu of excise duty levied on similar products manufactured in India, education cess of customs, and special additional duty (SAD) in lieu of value added tax (VAT) levied on similar products sold in India.

The customs laws in India provide for a refund of customs duty paid on imported goods under the duty drawback scheme. Under this scheme, a specified percentage of the customs duty paid can be claimed as drawback at the time of re-export of the goods. The percentage of drawback that can be claimed ranges between 95% and 60%, and is determined on the basis of whether the goods have been used in India and the duration of use. In your case, since the equipment has been used in India for about seven months, you would be eligible...
