What we do

Services

One desk for the schemes in the Foreign Trade Policy and the Handbook of Procedures. We prepare the application, track it through the DGFT portal and stay with you until the file is closed.

FTP 2023 · Chapter 4

Advance Authorisation

Import inputs duty-free when they are physically used to make goods for export. We work out which inputs qualify, file the application and keep the authorisation in good standing until the export obligation is discharged and the bond is released.

  • Input-output norms under SION, or ad-hoc norms through the Norms Committee
  • Fresh applications, revalidation and extension of export obligation period
  • Amendments to add inputs, ports or quantities
  • Export obligation tracking and EODC / redemption filing
FTP 2023 · Chapter 5

EPCG

Bring in machinery, equipment and spares at zero customs duty to upgrade production, in return for exports worth a multiple of the duty saved. We plan the obligation realistically before you import, so the scheme pays off rather than becomes a liability.

  • Eligibility check and duty-saved calculation
  • Application, bank guarantee and bond formalities
  • Block-wise export obligation monitoring and annual reports
  • Extensions, EODC and closure of the authorisation
Duty remission

RoDTEP & RoSCTL

These schemes refund embedded taxes and levies that are not refunded elsewhere, issued as transferable e-scrips. We check that every eligible shipping bill has been claimed at the right rate and help you turn the credit into cash.

  • Review of shipping bills for missed or short claims
  • Scroll generation and e-scrip creation on ICEGATE
  • RoSCTL for apparel and made-up exporters
  • Sale of scrips through our trading desk at fair rates
DGFT registrations

IEC & RCMC

The Importer Exporter Code is the starting point for any cross-border trade, and an RCMC unlocks most scheme benefits. We handle the registrations and keep them current so a lapsed record never holds up a shipment.

  • New IEC applications and corrections to existing codes
  • Mandatory annual IEC updation on the DGFT portal
  • RCMC from the relevant Export Promotion Council
  • Status Holder certification based on export performance
Import consultancy

Import policy

Some goods are restricted or need prior permission before they can be imported. We read your product against the ITC (HS) schedule and policy conditions, and tell you plainly what is allowed, what needs approval and what it will take.

  • Classification and import policy check by ITC (HS) code
  • Applications for restricted items before DGFT committees
  • Interpretation of notifications, public notices and policy circulars
  • Coordination with customs brokers at the port of import
Litigation support

Appeals & disputes

When a demand notice, show-cause notice or refusal arrives, a careful reply early on often settles the matter. We prepare the case with you and represent it before the DGFT, from the first reply to the appellate stage.

  • Drafting replies to show-cause and demand notices
  • Representation at personal hearings
  • Appeals before the appellate authorities at DGFT
  • Recovery, penalty and denied-entity cases
How a file moves

From advice to closure

Most schemes run for years. We stay with an authorisation through each stage so obligations are met on time and benefits are not left unused.

Stage 1

Advise

We study your product, its inputs, your markets and your shipping pattern, then recommend the scheme or combination of schemes that gives the best return. You get a clear note on benefits, obligations and risks before anything is filed.

Stage 2

Implement

We prepare the application, supporting documents and norms, arrange bonds or bank guarantees and handle all the DGFT portal work. Queries from the department are answered quickly so the authorisation is issued without delay.

Stage 3

Utilise

Once issued, the authorisation is registered at the port and imports start. We keep a running record of imports and exports against it, and warn you well before any deadline or obligation falls behind.

Stage 4

Monetise

Transferable scrips and credits are only valuable if they are used. We help you apply them against your own duty or sell them to importers at a fair market rate, with proper documentation.

Stage 5

Defend

At the end we file for redemption and obtain the discharge certificate. If an audit query, demand or show-cause notice arises, we respond on your behalf and carry the matter through hearings and appeals.
