Sub: Rebate of State Levies Scheme 2016 (ROSL Scheme) on Export of Garments

Dear Member,

This is to inform you that the Central Board of Excise and Customs has issued Circular No. 43/ 2016- Customs dated 31st August, 2016 on the above subject.

The Government of India has decided to adopt a mechanism wherein the rebate of State levies on garment exports is provided based on a budgetary allocation of the Ministry of Textiles under a scheme in which the Department of Revenue/ CBEC handles disbursement along with the extant Duty Drawback.

The ROSL scheme is meant for exports of garments that are defined in the scheme as goods falling under Chapters 61 or 62 of the Schedule of All Industry Rates of Drawback. It is applicable to exports with Let Export Order dates from 20.9.2016 onwards. Though applicability is for three years, nonetheless based on changes in underlying conditions, the Central Government can adjust the rates of rebate.

Board wants Commissioners to provide adequate guidance to officers and exporters, and to facilitate the smooth functioning of the ROSL scheme.

Members are requested to make note of the above.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

V.ANIL KUMAR
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
