08 June 2012 Drawback means the rebate of duty chargeable on any imported materials or excisable materials used in manufacture or processing of goods which are manufactured in India and exported. Export means taking out of India. Supply of stores for use in vessel or aircraft proceeding to foreign port is also covered, since it is treated as ‘export’ as per section 89 of Customs Act.

There are two types of drawback. One is called drawback under Section 74 of the Customs Act, 62 which allows drawback of duty paid on goods originally imported on payment of duty and subsequently re-exported. The manner and time limit for filing the claims are governed by "Re- export of Imported Goods (Drawback of Customs duties) Rules, 1995.

1. The other scheme is payment of drawback under Section 75 and Rules made thereunder at specified rated on export of goods manufactured in India. The manner and time limit for filing the claims are prescribed under the Customs and Central Excise Duties Drawback Rules 1995 as amended from time to time.

2. The Central government notifies the Drawback rates for various products either on a general basis (all industry rates) or for individual exporters( brand rates) as the case may be. Drawback sanctioned under section 75 has a two tier system involving (i) fixation of rates by the Directorate of Drawback in the Central Board of Excise and Customs and (ii) disbursement of drawback amount by the Customs Houses and/ Central Excise Commissionerate

Under Duty Drawback Scheme relief of Customs and Central Excise Duties suffered on the inputs used in the manufacture of export product is allowed to Exporters. The admissible duty drawback amount is paid to exporters by depositing it into their nominated bank account. Section 75 of the Customs Act, 1962 and Section 37 of the Central Excise Act, 1944, empower the Central Government to grant such duty drawback. Customs and Central Excise Duties Drawback Rules, 1995 have been framed outlining the procedure to be followed for the purpose of grant of duty drawback (for both kinds of duties suffered) by the Customs Authorities processing export documentation.

Foreign trade policy issued every year by the ministry of Commerce of industry for enhancement the export of india and reduced and increased the dbk rates and various incentive provide to the indian exporter,
