A business is seeking advice on how to write off import dues from over three years ago, stemming from issues with imported used machinery. The supplier has agreed to the write-off via email confirmation and credit notes. The user needs guidance on the RBI procedure and relevant FEMA rules, particularly concerning withheld payments due to quality concerns and the validity of using credit notes for settlement.
