What RoDTEP means for buyers

Refunds embedded central, state and local duties not otherwise rebated, directly into the exporter's ledger.

For a global brand, schemes like RoDTEP are invisible but decisive: they lower the true cost base of Indian factories, which is why FOB prices from India increasingly undercut comparable China-sourced goods — without compromising on quality or compliance.

Administered by the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) sits inside the policy architecture that keeps Indian exports price-competitive. The headline benefit — 0.5%–4.3% of FOB value refunded — accrues to the manufacturer rather than the buyer, but it reshapes the quote you receive: lower embedded costs translate into keener FOB pricing and more room to negotiate on volume. When you source through MadeFromIndia, scheme-backed pricing is already baked into every landed-cost benchmark, so you see the real number against rival origins.
