India extends RoDTEP scheme till Mar 2026 to counter US tariffs
“In exercise of the powers conferred under Section 5 of the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992, as amended, read with Para 1.02 of the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2023, the Central Government hereby notifies the extension of the RoDTEP Scheme beyond September 30, 2025. Accordingly, the RoDTEP Scheme shall remain in force and be applicable to exports made from Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) units, Advance Authorisation (AA) holders, Special Economic Zone (SEZ) units, and Export Oriented Units (EOUs) up to March 31, 2026,” the DGFT said in a notification issued today.
India has extended the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) Scheme by six months beyond September 30, 2025, to March 31, 2026, amid 50 per cent US tariffs.
The extension, notified by DGFT, will support exporters across DTA, AA, SEZ, and EOU units.
Current rates remain unchanged, with operations subject to the FTP 2023 budgetary framework.
The existing RoDTEP rates, as notified, shall continue to apply for all export items. However, the operation of the scheme will remain subject to the budgetary framework provided under Para 4.54 of FTP 2023, so that remissions during the financial year are managed within the approved allocation.
In August 2021, the government announced tax refund rates for 8,555 products, including yarn. Various central and state duties, taxes, and levies on input products are refunded under the scheme, with rates ranging from 0.3 per cent to 4.3 per cent. RoDTEP refunds taxes and duties not covered by other schemes, in line with WTO provisions for compensating duties, taxes, and levies on exported products. In the textile industry, the scheme provides relief for exports of 18 items, including sarees and lungis.

The transition marks the formal handover of executive leadership to President and CEO Keun-Chang (Kevin) Yoon, reinforcing management continuity while preserving the founder’s long-term strategic vision.
Misto Holdings founder Gene Yoon has transitioned to honorary chairman in a planned leadership succession, formally handing executive control to president and CEO Kevin Yoon.
The founder, who expanded the group through the FILA global trademark acquisition and the takeover of Acushnet, will continue guiding long-term strategy as the rebranded Misto focuses on governance and sustainable growth.
Gene Yoon founded the business that would become Misto Holdings in the early 1990s, introducing the FILA brand to the Korean market and later leading a series of transformative transactions. In 2007, the company acquired the global FILA trademark rights through a leveraged buyout, followed by the 2011 acquisition of Acushnet Company, owner of the Titleist and FootJoy brands. The transaction was among the largest cross-border deals in Korea’s consumer sector at the time and significantly expanded the group’s global footprint.
Under his leadership, the company evolved into a multi-brand global portfolio spanning sportswear, golf equipment and apparel, generating approximately USD 3.08 billion in annual revenue.
As Honorary Chairman, Gene Yoon will remain closely engaged with the company, providing guidance on long-term strategy and global portfolio development while supporting management from a broader strategic perspective.
The leadership transition marks a new chapter under President and CEO Kevin Yoon, who has spent nearly two decades in senior roles across the group’s global operations, building deep operational and strategic expertise.
The company’s 2025 rebranding to “Misto” underscores its evolution into a global brand house focused on disciplined capital allocation, enhanced shareholder returns and sustainable long-term growth.
“Building on the founder’s legacy, our priority is to expand our global portfolio, strengthen governance and deliver sustainable value creation,” said Kevin Yoon, President and CEO of Misto Holdings.
