Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (RoSCTL)

The Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (RoSCTL) scheme is an important export incentive introduced to support India’s apparel and made-ups export sector. The scheme helps exporters recover certain embedded taxes and levies that are not refunded through other mechanisms, thereby improving export competitiveness in international markets.

For textile and garment exporters, understanding eligibility conditions, ensuring correct declarations in shipping bills, and properly managing duty credit scrips is essential to fully benefit from the scheme. Many exporters face challenges in identifying applicable rebate rates, maintaining compliance with scheme provisions, and tracking benefit realisation.

Shangrila Corporate Services Pvt Ltd provides structured advisory to help exporters assess eligibility, ensure accurate documentation, and optimise benefits available under the RoSCTL scheme while maintaining compliance with Foreign Trade Policy provisions.
