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

Dear Member,

As you are aware, Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) had issued Circular No. 43/ 2016- Customs dated 31st August, 2016 wherein the Government of India had decided to adopt a mechanism where the rebate of State levies on garment exports was provided based on a budgetary allocation of the Ministry of Textiles under a scheme in which the Department of Revenue/Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) handles disbursement along with the existing Duty Drawback.

Accordingly, 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.

Now CBEC has issued Circular No. 47/2016-Customs dated 20.10.2016 on the above subject. The field formations are informed for necessary action that with reference to Circular No. 43/ 2016- Customs dated 31st August, 2016 in Para 11, the address of the Textile Commissioner for communication is “Nishta Bhawan, New CGO Building, 48, New Marine Lines, Mumbai-400020” and email ID is “txc-otxc@nic.in”. Further in para 12 of the said Circular there is reference to monthly email from the Systems Directorate (and every Customs location from where any ROSL rebate may have been processed manually) conveying the relevant list of claims to Ministry of Textiles. This email is to be sent to the “Director (Export), Room No. 266, Ministry of Textiles, Udyog Bhawan, New Delhi” at the email id “neeravkr@nic.in”.

Members are requested to make note of the above.

Thanking you,

V.ANIL KUMAR
