Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Business Setup & Compliance in Bengaluru SEZ
Find answers to common questions about SEZ regulations, tax benefits, and operational compliance in Electronic City.
What are the primary benefits of setting up a unit in an SEZ?
Key benefits include a corporate tax holiday for a specified period, duty-free import/procurement of goods for operations, exemption from GST, and access to single-window clearance mechanisms for various approvals.
What are the main compliance obligations for an SEZ unit?
SEZ units must be net foreign exchange earners. They need to file regular performance reports, maintain separate books of accounts, and follow strict procedures for customs bonding and movement of goods in and out of the zone.
Can an SEZ unit sell goods or services in the domestic market?
Yes, but it's treated as an export from the SEZ and an import for the domestic buyer. Full customs duties and other applicable taxes must be paid, which can make it less competitive than regular domestic sales.
