he proof of exports in case exports were made under bond/LUT without payment of IGST.
IGST Payment Status – To indicate whether the exports are being made on:
P – Payment of IGST
LUT – Under Bond or LUT
NA – Where IGST is not applicable, 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:
