All about Imports and Exports under Goods & Services Tax Act (GST)

August 6, 2017 45129 Views 16 comments Print

Exporters are witnessing sea changes as regards export rules under the existing GST regime as compared to the earlier regime of indirect taxation in India. Particularly the traders and the provider of export services are facing difficulties in filing bonds and Letter of undertaking before making exports. Even the general meaning of exports have changed now as supplies made to SEZ developer or SEZ unit are now treated as export transactions even if they are made intra-state, also sales to export houses and penultimate exports are no longer covered under the definition of export now. Exports which were earlier made without payment of taxes are now made subject to payment of taxes or filing of some special documents in lieu of taxes paid on exports. In our previous article on “Place of Supply under GST”, we covered the nature of supplies to be treated as exports/import of goods or services under GST, so we are not discussing these provisions here. Rather, in this article we will now discuss benefits, procedures and other provisions related to export and import of goods and services under GST in India.
