The mechanism of sanctioning refund is an essential process as it facilitates trade through the release of blocked funds.RoDTEP (Refund of duties and taxes on exported products) is one suchexport refund schemethat ensures that the exporters receive the refunds on the taxes and duties which wereso far not refunded or rebated. The scheme was brought to boost exports which were relatively poor in volume previously.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The RoDTEP Scheme came into existence because the USA filed a complaint against India at the WTO stating that export subsidies like the MEIS scheme given by the Government of India (GOI) gave undue benefits to Indian exporters and were against the WTO rules. India lost the case at WTO and had to come up with a new WTO-compliant scheme to help Indian exporters.This scheme came into force with effect on1<sup>st<\/sup>January;2021.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-5'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/export-booster-rodtep\/#The_Difference_Between_Both_the_MEIS_and_RoDTEP_Schemes_are_as_follows\" >The Difference Between Both the MEIS and RoDTEP Schemes are as follows:<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-6' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-6'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/export-booster-rodtep\/#Features_of_RoDTEP\" >Features of RoDTEP<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Difference_Between_Both_the_MEIS_and_RoDTEP_Schemes_are_as_follows\"><\/span>The Difference Between Both the MEIS and RoDTEP Schemes are as follows:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2802\" src=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"546\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1.png 546w, https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1-300x237.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 546px) 100vw, 546px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Features_of_RoDTEP\"><\/span><strong>Features of RoDTEP<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2803\" src=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"893\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.png 893w, https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/www.akgvg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2-768x366.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><u>Who all are eligible to obtain the benefits of the scheme?<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>All sectors are eligible to enjoy the benefits of this Scheme.
