GST LUT Filing
LUT stands for Letter of Undertaking. The required details need to be furnished as per the prescribed format in the Form GST RFD-11 under Rule 96A. It is mandatory to furnish LUT to export goods or services or both without making IGST payment. If the exporter fails to provide the LUT, then he has to pay IGST or provide an export bond. Earlier LUT could only be filed offline at the concerned GST office. But to further ease the process the Government has made the LUT filing online.
