Master Direction – Export of Goods and Services (Updated as on November 22, 2022)
RBI/FED/2015-16/11
FED Master Direction No. 16/2015-16
C12> (iv) In case the goods are exported on consignment basis, freight and marine insurance must be arranged in India.

I have a case where an overseas buyer is paying for the freight and insurance in case of consignment exports and also for the re-import of goods of the same consignment exports so we export on the basis of FOB.
Our bank says that as per RBI Master Circular it cannot be FOB as freight and insurance has to be paid in India.
I would like to understand the interpretation of this guideline.
Does it mean that:
1) Freight and Insurance has to be paid by the exporter
2) Freight and Insurance has to be paid in India by anyone of the exporter/overseas party/third party
3) Freight and Insurance has to be "arranged" in india at the time of exporting but can be paid by anyone anywhere
4) Freight and Insurance has to be paid/arranged in India only so as to safeguard the FOREX involved in the transaction in case of any loss/damage of the product (since in case of consignment the ownership has not yet passed to the overseas buyer)

One of our client exported the goods with payment of IGST. But clerical mistake they filed the GSTR-1 by without payment of IGST instead of with payment of IGST. During the month of Feb.2024, they found and amended the invoices in GSTR-1, the same month regular exports also available and mentioned the exports with payment of IGST. At the time of filing the GSTR-3B, regular Exports IGST only debited in the Electronic credit ledger, the amended IGST not debited in the ECL by mistake. In this situation the Export Invoices not transferred to the ICEGATE. The refund also pending. How to debit the amended IGST in the portal. If debited through the DRC-03, they refund the same. Please clarify by the experts, how to solve this problem.

I recently gave me AFM exams and the MCQ booklet number that I had written on the answer sheet is correct but however on Blackening the OMR part I made a mistake where i blacked the last digit wrong and I had asked the invigilator and she suggested to put a cross beside the wrong number and blacken the correct number.

Does this help in anyway ? Will my MCQ answers be checked ?
