Dear Rajesh

My concern is other way round, I wish to buy from a company in SEZ for export purposes.

So the goods will come from SEZ to DTA & then will be exported outside india without any changes.

Now since goods are not for home consumption, there must be some way to bypass custom duty either by the way of bond or form CT-1.

Your help & guidance will be appreciated.

Regards,

Manish Gupta

Actually, when goods will come from SEZ to DTA, import duty is payable. At the time of export certaily you can take 97% of the custom duty paid as drawback under Section 75 of the Custom Act. I cant find any other way to take exemtion from custom duty.

If possible, look for direct export from the SEZ unit, where the unit will export goods, which you can buy on high seas and sell to your buyer.
