The transaction is a valid commercial transaction. The question is as to how to go about it.
In this transaction you shall be receiving Foreign exchange without export of goods. Take a certificate of bank with respect to exemption of GR.
For the purposes of excise, no excise duty is payable as goods are not leaving the factory gate. The tool shall be used for further manufacture and hence exemption under 67/95 is available. Ownership of goods are irrelevant.
When the further manufactured product are exported, as per excise law, amortised cost of this tool should be added. If however you do it, value on ARE-1 and shipping bill will differ and you will need to do whole lot of explianing to custom and bank. Excise duty portion is irrelevant as even is excise duty is assed on higher value, no duty shall be payable for export under bond. In such situation even worng application of law (by not adding amortisation cost) may be preferable at the time of export.
