The

as existing on the date of order of "let export"

to the FOB value of exports. The DEPB rate 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/-. |

Wherever
any specific rate exists for a particular item under
DEPB rate list as given in this book the items shall

on the inputs 'used in export product. Therefore,
the DEPB rates as given in this book refer to normally
tradable/exportable product. Items such as gold
Nibs, Gold Pen, Gold watches etc. though covered
under the generic description of writing instruments,
components of writing instruments and watches are
thus not eligible for benefit under the DEPB scheme.
