It has been provided that if the RSP is not affixed or marked on goods when they are cleared in the course of sale from the factory of a manufacturer to the brand owner, the wholesale price declared by the manufacturer would be deemed to be the tariff value for the payment of duty. This has been provided through the insertion of a proviso in Notification No.20/2001-CE (NT), dated 30th April, 2001 through amendment Notification No. 12/2011-CE (NT), dated 24th March, 2011.

The garments purchased by the brand owner being duty-paid, he would also be entitled to claim credit and utilize that for the payment of duty when he clears the goods after affixing the RSP.
