All precautions may please be taken to ensure that only the correct amount gets credited into the exporters’ accounts. Sample cases may be taken up for manual checking and validation. It may also be ensured that in cases where the exporters have already taken the differential drawback by filing supplementary claims, the EDI system does not again credit the differential drawback amount into exporter’s accounts.
An ‘Explanation’ has been added to Rule 12 (erstwhile Rule 10A), which relates to rejection of declared value, to bring more clarity and objectivity in exercising the authority for rejection of declared value. The Explanation clarifies that this rule as such does not provide a method for determination of value, and that it merely provides a mechanism and procedure for rejection of declared value in certain cases.
While raising doubt about truth or accuracy of the declared value in terms of Rule 8, the proper officer shall issue a query memo specifying reasons for such doubt. Meanwhile, the goods will be released for export against a simple undertaking after drawal of representative sample as indicated in para 5. The decision to initiate the process of investigation into valuation aspects, if any, shall be taken at the earliest at the level of Joint /Additional Commissioner.
