Indian government has extended the RoDTEP scheme until February 5, 2025, allowing exporters to claim benefits on shipments made until that date.
The extension applies to Advance Authorisation holders, Export Oriented Units, and SEZ units, which together contribute about 25 per cent of India's exports.
RoDTEP rates will remain unchanged, and the scheme covers 18 items, including sarees and lungis.

The Indian government has extended the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Export Products (RoDTEP) scheme until February 5, 2025. The extension was announced via a notification issued on March 20, 2025, after the previous deadline had expired. This extension provides a window for exporters to claim benefits for consignments shipped up to the new deadline.

Support under the RoDTEP scheme for exports of products manufactured by Advance Authorisation (AA) holders, Export Oriented Units (EOUs), and Special Economic Zone (SEZ) export units has also been extended until February 5, 2025. These categories of exporters collectively account for approximately 25 per cent of India’s exports.

From February 6, 2025, onwards, exports from these categories will no longer be eligible for RoDTEP support. However, support under the RoDTEP scheme for other categories Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) shall continue as per Notification No. 32/2024-25.

The scheme, which provides remission of duties and taxes for exports of 18 items, including sarees and lungis, was originally set to end on December 31, 2024. The RoDTEP rates on export items will remain unchanged during the extended period.
