  2. The DEPB rate and the value cap shall be applicable as existing on the date of order of “let export” by the Customs.

  3. The value cap, wherever existing, shall be with reference to the FOB value of exports. The DEPB rates shall be applied on the FOB value or value cap whichever is lower. For example, if the FOB value is Rs.500/- per piece, and the value cap is Rs.300/- per piece, the DEPB rate shall be applied on Rs.300/-.

  4. Wherever any specific rate exists for a particular item under DEPB rate list as given in this book, the items shall not be covered under any generic description of the DEPB rate list.

  10. Wherever the export of resultant product in completely built form is allowed under DEPB, the CKD/SKD export of such product shall also be allowed under DEPB.

  11.  DEPB benefit would also be admissible on the export of composite product including assembled product having more than one constituent items for which DEPB rates are individually fixed. In such cases, the DEPB entitlement would be restricted to the lowest of the rate applicable to the constituent items, ignoring the rate of the constituent item(s) having weight less than 5% of the total net weight of such product. However, no DEPB benefit would be admissible on the exportof such product, if constituent item(s) is weighing more than 5% of the total net weight (of the product) and does not have any DEPB rate fixed.



    The exporters shall declare in the shipping bill the following details also for claiming DEPB benefit on the export of such product:
