Export Without Upfront Tax Payment

A Letter of Undertaking (LUT) is a government-approved document that lets exporters ship goods/services without paying IGST upfront. Instead of blocking funds in taxes, you export tax-free and comply with GST rules. Key Features:

  • Mandatory for exporters: Required for all GST-registered businesses exporting goods/services.
  • Tax relief: Saves immediate IGST cash outflow (0% tax during export).
  • Validity: Renew every financial year (April 1–March 31).

Eligibility Simplified

You MUST file LUT if:

  • You’re GST-registered and export goods/services.
  • Your business supplies to Special Economic Zones (SEZs).
  • You’re not involved in tax evasion cases above ₹2.5 crore.

You DON’T need LUT for:

  • Domestic sales within India.
  • Exports where IGST is paid (refund claimed later).

Why Exporters Love LUT

  1. Free Up Cash Flow:
    • No IGST paid during export → Working capital stays in your business.
  2. Zero Refund Hassles:
    • Avoid months-long IGST refund processes.
  3. Annual Validity:
    • File once → Valid for 12 months (no monthly renewals).
  4. Faster Exports:
    • Ship goods without tax paperwork delays.

Example: A ₹50 lakh export order saves ₹9 lakh (18% IGST) upfront with LUT.
