IN GST, WHAT IS A LETTER OF UNDERTAKING (LUT)?

Letter of Undertaking/LUT under GST is specified to be provided in the form GST RFD 11 under rule 96 A, wherein the exporter states that he or she will complete all of the conditions that are prescribed under GST when exporting without making IGST payment. This is required in order for the exporter to be exempt from making IGST payment.

WHO IS REQUIRED TO FILE A LETTER OF UNDERTAKING (LUT) IN GST (FORM GST RFD-11)?

BOND FOR GST EXPORT

Those who don’t meet the requirements to submit a Letter of Undertaking will have to show an export bond and a bank security instead. Estimated tax debt self-assessment means that the person who wants to sell needs to pay the amount of tax that goes along with it.

Export bond should be given on non-judicial stamp paper with the amount that is required in the state where the bond is given.

Exporters can also provide a moving bond so that the export bond doesn’t have to be signed for every export deal. But if the unpaid tax on exports is more than the amount of the bond at any time, the seller must give a new bond to cover the extra tax.

An export bond can be paired with a bank guarantee. Most of the time, the value of the bank guarantee shouldn’t be more than 15% of the amount of the bond. But if the exporter has a good track record, the local GST Commissioner can waive the requirement that the exporter present a bank security along with the export bond.
