The government has extended export benefits under the RoDTEP scheme to companies in the special economic zones (SEZs) and export-oriented units (EOUs).
These sectors constituting about 25 per cent of the total shipment.
RoDTEP stands for Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products.
The government, in August 2021, announced the rates of tax refunds under the export promotion scheme for 8,555 products like marine goods, yarn and dairy items.
SEZs and EOUs were kept out of the scheme in the list notified at that time.
