As we understand in this case there would be 2 order- 1) for tool 2) for product. Once tool ready you could raise a local invoice as goods are not moving at all. There is a constructive delivery of tool by you to customer outside India and you continue to hold the tool on his behalf. Tools would not be actually exported ever. Therefore on the day of the invoicing you are liable for VAT on the tool.
On the components now there is no tooling amortisation as already tool cost VAT paid.
