Misuse of Duty Drawback Scheme by Exporters: Delhi HC Allows to Avail Remedy Under Customs Act

Delhi High Court allowed exporters to avail remedy under the Customs Act for the alleged misuse of the duty drawback scheme. Duty drawback is a mechanism for exporters to claim a refund of customs duties paid on inputs used in the manufacture of exported goods. The court's decision suggests that even if there are allegations of misuse of this scheme, exporters are still entitled to pursue remedies available under the Customs Act to address any grievances or disputes related to their drawback claims.
