Indicative only. Sample lines from this tool's Appendix 4R (RoDTEP Rates) dataset, last checked 2026-08-05. Rates and caps are revised by DGFT notification; verify the current line against the DGFT RoDTEP schedule before filing a shipping bill.

How to claim RoDTEP and Duty Drawback together?
In 2026, Indian exporters can claim both RoDTEP and Duty Drawback (AIR) on the same Shipping Bill provided there is no double-counting of the same taxes. Duty Drawback refunds the Basic Customs Duty (BCD) on inputs, while RoDTEP remits non-refunded taxes like VAT on fuel, Mandi Tax, and Stamp Duty.
