Thnx for the reply. But my query is still open.
I know that we have to pay duty saved amount along with applicable interest to customs. That exporter have already done.
But my question is that whether DGFT can demand such penalty even after payment to custom authority.

### Understanding the Situation
1. **Advance Authorization (AA) and Export Obligation (EO)**:
- An AA allows duty-free import of raw materials, components, or capital goods.
- EO mandates the exporter to export a certain value of goods within a specified period.
2. **Non-Fulfillment and Penalties**:
- If an exporter fails to meet the EO, DGFT may impose penalties, which could be a percentage of the unmet export value.
- Interest on the duty saved amount is also applicable for the period of default.
3. **Customs and TR Challan**:
- The exporter paid the penalty and interest to customs through a TR challan, indicating payment of duty saved under the AA.
### DGFT’s Authority and Actions
- **Penalty from DGFT**: Yes, DGFT can still demand penalties for non-fulfillment of EO obligations, even if the customs duties (duty saved under AA) and interest have been paid.
- **Reasoning**: The payment made through the TR challan to customs addresses the duty aspect under the customs laws. However, EO obligations under the DGFT regulations are separate. DGFT can enforce penalties independently for not meeting these obligations.
### Key Considerations
- **Compliance with DGFT Regulations**: Exporters must comply with both customs and DGFT regulations separately. Payment of customs duty and penalties does not exempt them from EO obligations under DGFT rules.
- **Consultation and Documentation**: It’s advisable to consult with a DGFT consultant or a legal expert well-versed in international trade to understand specific regulations and potential penalties. Proper documentation of all transactions and communications with DGFT is crucial.
### Next Steps
1. **Review Regulations**: Carefully review the DGFT notifications and policies relevant to your specific case to understand the penalties and compliance requirements.
2. **Communication with DGFT**: If penalties are imposed or demanded by DGFT, ensure timely communication and compliance to avoid further consequences.
3. **Future Compliance Strategy**: Develop a robust compliance strategy to meet EO obligations under AA and avoid penalties in the future.
In summary, while the payment through TR challan addresses customs duties, DGFT can still demand penalties for non-fulfillment of EO obligations. Exporters should adhere to both customs and DGFT regulations and seek expert guidance as needed to navigate these requirements effectively.
