Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the purpose of an IEC (Import Export Code), which is a government-issued permit for international trade in India. It explains that exporting goods from India under the GST regime is zero-rated. You can either pay GST and claim a refund, or export without paying tax by obtaining a Letter of Undertaking (LUT) or Bond, provided you meet the conditions and have GST registration.
