Q1. RoDTEP was introduced in 2021 to replace which scheme that was found non-compliant with WTO norms?

A EPCG Scheme
B Merchandise Exports from India Scheme (MEIS) Correct
C Export Promotion Capital Goods Scheme
D Services Exports from India Scheme (SEIS)

Explanation

RoDTEP replaced the Merchandise Exports from India Scheme (MEIS) in January 2021. MEIS had been challenged at the WTO Dispute Settlement Body by the United States and was found to be inconsistent with WTO norms as it constituted a prohibited export subsidy.

Q2. The RoDTEP scheme was extended in April 2026. Which of the following correctly describes the mechanism of its benefits to exporters?

A Cash subsidy credited directly to exporter's bank account
B Duty-free import licenses issued for raw materials
C Digital e-scrip credits on ICEGATE portal, usable for Basic Customs Duty or encashable Correct
D GST exemption on all export goods

Explanation

Under RoDTEP, exporters receive digital e-scrip credits generated on the ICEGATE portal. These are transferable and can be used to pay Basic Customs Duty or sold for cash. This is unlike direct cash subsidies and makes the scheme WTO-compliant.
