Maximise Your Export Incentives with RoDTEP
Exporters often incur embedded taxes and levies that are not refunded through GST or standard duty drawback mechanisms, directly impacting margins. The Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) scheme is designed to neutralise these costs and improve export competitiveness.
Shangrila Corporate Services Pvt Ltd supports exporters in accurate eligibility assessment, correct claim structuring, and maximising RoDTEP benefits without errors or rejections.
Overview
What is RoDTEP Scheme?

These include:
- Electricity duty
- Fuel-related levies
- Mandi tax and local charges
- Embedded taxes in the supply chain
The benefit is provided in the form of transferable duty credit, linked to product HS codes and export value.
