Which benefits belong to your business?

Exporters: assess remission, refunds, inputs, machinery, MSME finance and market support. Importers: duty relief usually depends on authorised use, export obligations or origin; importing alone does not create an export subsidy entitlement. CHA / freight forwarders: assess AEO-LO and eligible project support; clients’ shipment incentives belong to the eligible exporter. Logistics services do not automatically qualify as GST exports.

FROM ELIGIBILITY TO CLAIM

Let us check your opportunity.

Share your business type, state, Udyam/IEC status, product and HS code, trade route, turnover and planned expenditure. We help shortlist schemes, check overlap, prepare documentation and track applications.

1. Check before spending

Some programmes require prior approval or an intent-to-claim. Avoid assuming costs already incurred can be reimbursed.

2. Build the claim file

Match invoices, shipping bills, authorisations, bank records and certificates to the chosen scheme.

3. Submit & follow up

We assist with applications and queries. Authorities and lenders decide approval and disbursement.

Sector, state and scheme status

This directory covers major central export-related support, not every state industrial policy or sector-specific manufacturing incentive. Ask us to check your state and product with the relevant department or commodity board; deadlines, budgets and application calls vary. Do not claim the same cost twice where prohibited.
