What DutyIQ Is

Money that belongs to you. Already paid. Recoverable.

Most audits hand you a report and leave. You are expected to read it, understand it, and act on it alone. That is not how we work. Every finding we surface, we walk through with you — what it means, what it is worth, what the path to recovering it looks like. We do not consider the work done until you have what you need to act. The audit is the beginning of the conversation, not the end of it.

Most Indian businesses that import or export are leaving money on the table. Not through negligence — but because the benefit landscape is complex, the schemes are multiple, and the intersection between what you are paying and what you are entitled to recover is rarely examined with the rigour it deserves.

DutyIQ is a structured audit of your import-export duty payments. It identifies what you have missed, what you can recover, and what you should be capturing going forward. Analysed through a proprietary process, supported by dedicated AI, and humanly vetted by seasoned domain experts.

Most audits surface significantly more than they cost. We will tell you honestly, before we begin, whether we believe that is likely in your situation. This is benefit recovery. The findings are yours to act on.

What We Surface

◆

RoDTEP

Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products — missed scheme benefits and unclaimed credits.

◆

Duty Drawback

Refunds on customs duties paid on imported inputs used in exported goods.

◆

Advance Authorisation & EPCG

Duty-free import entitlements on export-linked capital goods and raw materials.

◆

FTA Benefits

Preferential duty rates under India-EU, India-UAE CEPA, and ASEAN agreements — frequently unclaimed.

◆

Duty Misclassification

HS code errors that result in excess duty payments — a significant and often overlooked source of recoverable value.

◆

GST Refunds

Integrated GST paid on imports where refund entitlement has not been pursued.

Our Methodology

Proprietary process. AI-supported. Humanly vetted.

Three layers of rigour. One output: what you can recover and how.

Data Ingestion

We work from your import-export documentation — shipping bills, bills of entry, duty payment records. Structured and ingested into our proprietary audit framework.

AI-Supported Analysis

Our dedicated AI layer cross-references every transaction against current duty codes, FTA schedules, scheme eligibility criteria, and benefit entitlement rules.

Expert Vetting

Every finding is reviewed and validated by seasoned domain experts before it reaches you. We do not hand over algorithm outputs. We hand over verified conclusions.

Findings & Recommendations

A structured report of what you have missed, what is recoverable, the quantum of each opportunity, and the recommended path to realise it.

The Four Modules

Choose the modules your situation calls for.

Duty Leakage & Customs Audit

The core audit. Identifies missed FTA benefits, duty code misclassification savings, scheme eligibility gaps, and recoverable duty refunds across your import-export transactions. The starting point for most engagements.

Global Buyer Discovery

Identify active international buyers for your product category using live shipment data — transaction-level intelligence drawn from import records in your target markets. See who is buying, from whom, and at what volume.

Trade Intelligence & Market Analytics

Market sizing, trade corridor analysis, competitor mapping, and share-of-trade data for your product and target geography. The intelligence layer that turns export intent into informed export strategy.

Export Opportunity Scoring

A scored and prioritised assessment of your export opportunities across markets, buyers, and corridors. Combines M1–M3 intelligence into a decision-ready ranking of where to focus first and why.

Who DutyIQ Is For

Any Indian business that imports inputs or exports products.

DutyIQ is most valuable for businesses that have been importing or exporting for three or more years — where the volume of transactions means the unclaimed benefits are material, and where no structured review has ever been done.

Signs You Would Benefit

You import raw materials, components, or capital goods for your manufacturing or operations.

You export finished goods or intermediate products — and have never had a structured duty review.

You are aware of FTA benefits but have never systematically verified what you are entitled to claim.

Your HS codes have not been reviewed since you began trading.

You have heard of RoDTEP, Duty Drawback, or EPCG — but are unsure how much you have left unclaimed.

You want to know who your active international buyers are before you approach them.
