Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"186\" data-end=\"462\">The Central Government has issued a notification rescinding <strong data-start=\"246\" data-end=\"282\">Notification No. 04\/2025-Customs<\/strong>, thereby withdrawing the customs duty exemptions earlier granted on specified imported goods. This change takes effect from <strong data-start=\"407\" data-end=\"423\">1st May 2025<\/strong> and will have prospective application.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"469\" data-end=\"487\"><strong data-start=\"473\" data-end=\"487\">2. Background<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"489\" data-end=\"787\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.centaxonline.com\/search?searchData=Notification%20No.%2004%2F2025-Customs&amp;itemType=AP\"><strong data-start=\"489\" data-end=\"525\">Notification No. 04\/2025-Customs<\/strong><\/a>, dated <strong data-start=\"533\" data-end=\"554\">1st February 2025<\/strong>, was earlier published in the <em data-start=\"585\" data-end=\"603\">Gazette of India<\/em> to grant exemptions from customs duties on certain imported goods, subject to prescribed conditions. The objective was to facilitate trade by reducing import costs for selected items.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"825\"><strong data-start=\"798\" data-end=\"825\">3. Withdrawal of Exemption<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"1052\">The government has now <strong data-start=\"850\" data-end=\"896\">rescinded Notification No. 04\/2025-Customs<\/strong>, thereby discontinuing the exemptions previously available. This action has been taken through a new notification which formally nullifies the earlier one.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1059\" data-end=\"1081\"><strong data-start=\"1063\" data-end=\"1081\">4. Effective Date<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1083\" data-end=\"1305\">The rescission shall come into effect from <strong data-start=\"1126\" data-end=\"1142\">1st May 2025<\/strong>. As such, <strong data-start=\"1153\" data-end=\"1218\">imports made on or after this date will no longer be eligible<\/strong> for the exemptions that were earlier available under Notification No. 04\/2025-Customs.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1312\" data-end=\"1343\"><strong data-start=\"1316\" data-end=\"1343\">5. Prospective Application<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1639\">It is clearly stated that the rescission will <strong data-start=\"1391\" data-end=\"1461\">not affect anything done or omitted to be done before 1st May 2025<\/strong>. This ensures that all exemptions availed, assessments made, or proceedings initiated under the original notification before its withdrawal will continue to hold legal validity.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1646\" data-end=\"1680\"><strong data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1680\">6. Implications for Importers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1682\" data-end=\"1946\">Importers and stakeholders are advised to take note of this change. They should carefully evaluate their import schedules and customs duty planning to account for the withdrawal of exemptions from 1st May 2025 onwards. Past entitlements, however, remain protected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Notification No. 26\/2025-Customs, Dated 30-04-2025 1.
