Dear Ganesh,

As the AWB shows address of your Private Limited IGM should have been filed with Customs showing address of your Pvt. Ltd.Post import amendment of IGM and BE is difficult and expensive however, you can say FedEx that this is your mistake but you should do one thing before saying to FedEx if possible you ask your shipper that which addres they had given to FedEx at load port for preparing AWB if your shipper has made a mistake you may ask them to arrange at load port to change the address and consequetly the change can be made in India through FedEx India at the cost of FedEx.

So far as related to Customs they will issue a certificate showing new address or they may make manual amendment in the Bill of Entry.
