The Directorate General of Foreign Trade governs most of what an exporter or importer in Jaipur deals with on a day-to-day basis, IEC issuance, licensing under the Foreign Trade Policy, and the various export promotion schemes that reduce duty outgo. The rules change fairly often, and a business that isn't tracking every notification can end up filing under an outdated scheme or missing a deadline that costs real money. Brillianto Consultancy and Advisory LLP works with Jaipur-based businesses on DGFT matters, from first-time registrations to ongoing licensing and scheme compliance for established exporters.
DGFT work spans a wide range, but most of it falls into a few practical buckets: getting registrations and licenses issued correctly the first time, keeping export incentive claims on track, and responding when the DGFT office raises a query on an existing filing. It's less about interpreting policy in the abstract and more about knowing which form applies to your specific situation, what documentation gets a license approved without delay, and how to fix a filing that's already gone wrong.
Issuing new Import Export Codes and correcting existing ones where business details, addresses or bank information no longer match.
Licensing that lets you import inputs or capital goods for export production without paying full duty upfront, along with the export obligation tracking that comes with it.
RoDTEP, RoSCTL and similar schemes that return a portion of embedded duties and taxes on exported goods.
Helping established exporters qualify for and secure Star Export House status, which comes with its own set of procedural benefits.
Keeping your business aligned with current FTP provisions as they're updated, rather than working off an outdated understanding of the rules.
Responding to show-cause notices or disputes raised by DGFT authorities on licensing or scheme compliance.
A large share of our DGFT clients in Jaipur are gems and jewellery exporters, given the sector's dominance in the local trade, and they deal with licensing and certification requirements that don't apply to most other goods. We also work with handicraft and textile exporters shipping internationally, and manufacturers using Advance Authorization to import inputs duty-deferred for export production. Each of these groups interacts with DGFT differently, a jewellery exporter's documentation looks nothing like a textile unit's Advance Authorization filing, and we tailor the work accordingly rather than running every client through the same process.
We review your current registrations, licenses and any DGFT filings already on record.
For existing exporters, we check whether current licenses match actual business activity and flag anything that's lapsed or incorrect.
We prepare and file whatever's needed, new registrations, license applications, or fixes to existing records.
We track applications through the DGFT office and respond to clarifications as they come in.
For clients using schemes like Advance Authorization, we track export obligation deadlines so nothing lapses.
IEC registration and straightforward license applications are usually quoted as a fixed fee per filing. Ongoing scheme management, tracking export obligations under Advance Authorization or EPCG, and periodic scheme filings, works better as a retainer sized to your export volume. We share an actual figure once we understand what licenses you hold and how active your trade is, rather than a standard rate that doesn't reflect your business.
Businesses sometimes lose track of the export volume they've committed to against a license, which creates duty liability and penalties later. We monitor this actively rather than leaving it to be discovered at renewal.
This causes payment and remittance issues that are entirely avoidable with a quick correction filing.
RoDTEP and similar claims are tied to shipping bill dates, and once the window closes, the claim can't be recovered. We track these dates so clients don't lose entitlements they've already earned.
Our team has over 60 collective years across DGFT, Customs, SEZ and EXIM regulatory work, including professionals who've represented clients in disputes with DGFT and customs authorities directly, not just handled routine filings. That matters when a license query turns into something that needs a proper response rather than a standard form. We also track Foreign Trade Policy updates as they're notified and flag anything relevant to a client's specific trade, so businesses aren't finding out about a change after it's already cost them.
Whether you need a new IEC, help with an Advance Authorization or EPCG license, or want someone tracking your scheme deadlines going forward, reach out and we'll go through what your business needs.
