Any individual who has registered for GST is only eligible to submit a LUT if they have not already been charged with tax evasion that totaled more than Rs. 2.5 Crore, any other offence under the CGST Act, the IGST Act 2017, or any other applicable law. Exporter rights may be cancelled and a deposit is required if they do not meet the LUT standards. Please be aware that before exporting any goods or services, this Letter of Undertaking (LUT) must be submitted online. You can apply for Letter of Undertaking, or LUT if you meet the following conditions:

• Wish to supply goods or services overseas or to India without paying GST
• Registered business under GST
• Do not have a tax evasion case of more than Rs 2.5 crore

Exports without tax payment : An exporter can export products or services without paying taxes by filing a LUT under GST. To take advantage of zero-rated exports if LUT is not filed, the exporter must first pay the necessary tax while making exports and then file a refund claim
