IGST Availment in case of Manual Bill of Entry : Since all the validation related to IGST refund or flow of IGST credit would happen electronically between Customs EDI and GSTN, it is imperative here that the required data is captured electronically without fail for all the imports and exports whether or not they are made through EDI locations.

dure as may be prescribed, on payment of integrated tax and claim refund of such tax paid on goods or services or both supplied. 10. Under the GST Laws, taxpayers would be filing their outward supply returns on GSTN for all the supplies made by them including exports. For exports, they will be required to quote the Shipping Bill and export invoice details which shall be validated by the Customs EDI system. The confirmation of the export by Customs shall be made once the EGM is filed and closed (in case of ICDs, it should be Gateway EGM, not train Summary). Based on this validation only the taxpayer (exporter) shall be granted refund of the IGST paid by him on the exported goods. This validation shall also act as the proof of export in case the exporter has made the supply under bond or LUT without payment of IGST. For facilitating the above, Shipping Bill forms have also been modified to capture the necessary details. 11. GSTIN Entity identification To avail IGST Benefits on Exports, d

le, i.e. the supply is non-taxable; including exports made by non GST registered exporters 13. Taxable Value and IGST Paid Since the actual quantity and value of the goods finally exported may sometimes be at variance with that indicated on the export invoice, these particulars have to be individually declared for every item. Here, Taxable Value is the value of the item actually being exported on which IGST has been paid. In case of short shipments due to shut out/back to town, IGST has to be calculated proportionately item wise in the invoice based on the actual quantity of exports. This is further explained by the following illustration: Illustration: An exporter raises an export invoice as below: Item Quantity (units) Unit (Rs) Price Total Price IGST (Rs) A 1000 200 2,00,000 24,000 B 2000 100 2,00,000 24,000 Total 4,00,000 48,000 Due to some reasons, he finally exports only 900 units of Item A and 1900 units of Item B. For his shipping bill, the Taxable value and IGST of each item s
