Posted On: 01 APR 2026 5:17PM by PIB Delhi The Ministry of Textiles has extended the Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (RoSCTL) Scheme for exports of apparel/garments and made-ups up to 30th September 2026 or until approval of the Scheme for the 16th Finance Commission cycle by the competent authority, whichever is earlier. The extension is without any change in existing guidelines. Operational since 7th March 2019, the RoSCTL Scheme aims to rebate all embedded State and Central taxes and levies not covered under any other scheme, thereby enhancing the global competitiveness of India’s apparel and made-ups exports. The Scheme is based on the principle of zero-rating of exports, ensuring remission of unrefunded taxes embedded in exported products. The Scheme continues to serve as a key support mechanism for the textile export sector, particularly benefiting MSME exporters, who constitute a major share of its beneficiaries. In parallel, the Government has also continued the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) Scheme from 1st April 2026 to 30th September 2026, which benefits textile products not covered under RoSCTL, including those falling outside Chapters 61, 62 and 63 of the ITC (HS). The combined continuation of RoSCTL for apparel and made-ups, along with RoDTEP for other textile products, ensures comprehensive support across the textile value chain. These measures will strengthen export competitiveness, particularly for MSMEs, and reaffirm the Government’s commitment to sustaining India’s position in global textile trade while ensuring policy continuity for exporters. ***** MAM/VN (Release ID: 2247851) Visitor Counter : 1621 Read this release in: Urdu , हिन्दी Ministry of Textiles Government Notifies Extension of RoSCTL Scheme for Apparel and Made-ups Exports Posted On: 01 APR 2026 5:17PM by PIB Delhi The Ministry of Textiles has extended the Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (RoSCTL) Scheme for exports of apparel/garments and made-ups up to 30th September 2026 or until approval of the Scheme for the 16th Finance Commission cycle by the competent authority, whichever is earlier.
