What is GST LUT Filing? 

In India, exporters typically need to pay Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) on their exports. However, the GST Law for Exports (LUT) filing offers an alternative for eligible businesses. It allows exporters to export goods or services without paying IGST upfront.

Key Benefits of GST LUT Filing

  • Simplified Exports: LUT filing eliminates the need to obtain an export bond or a separate LUT for each export shipment. This simplifies the documentation process and reduces administrative burdens. 
  • Improved Cash Flow: By not having to pay IGST upfront, businesses can improve their cash flow. This frees up working capital for other essential business needs.
  • Reduced Compliance Burden: LUT filing streamlines compliance procedures compared to the regular export process with IGST payment. It minimizes paperwork and saves time for exporters. 

 

Steps involved in the GST LUT Filing

GST LUT Filing refers to the process of submitting the Letter of Undertaking (LUT) under the Goods and Services Tax regime. It allows businesses engaged in exports to claim a waiver from paying Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) on exported goods and services.

 Businesses engaged in the export of goods or services and seeking to avail the benefit of zero-rated GST are eligible to file LUT. Generally, entities with a satisfactory compliance track record are eligible for LUT filing.

GST LUT filing is not a one-time process. Businesses need to file the LUT annually. It needs to be submitted before the beginning of the financial year for which the LUT is sought.

While specific requirements may vary, common documents include a copy of the LUT form, a statement of self-declaration, a copy of the GST registration certificate, and any other documents required by the GST authorities.

 Failure to file GST LUT within the specified timeframe may result in the business being required to pay IGST on exported goods and services. Additionally, non-compliance could lead to penalties or other repercussions as per GST regulations.
