GST LUT Form

A GST LUT (Letter of Undertaking) is a document filed by exporters to export goods or services without paying Integrated GST (IGST). It helps businesses avoid blocking working capital in tax payments.

Instead of paying IGST and claiming refund later, exporters can submit LUT to export tax-free, making it a preferred and hassle-free option.
