The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) now automatically deposits duty drawback payments into exporters’ bank accounts. This WTO-compliant scheme, under the Customs Act, 1962, rebates Customs and Central Excise duties on imported and excisable materials used in exports. It promotes exports by ensuring they are zero-rated, relieving exporters of specific tax burdens. Eligibility includes goods imported, used, or manufactured from imported or indigenous materials.
