Indian and international project teams reviewing a new manufacturing line during installation

Manufacturing in India as a Taiwanese company

Taiwanese electronics and semiconductor suppliers are building Indian plants close to their customers. MOOWR defers duty on imported tools and components with no export obligation.

What MOOWR adds

  • No export obligation
  • Domestic sales and exports from the same unit
  • Duty on capital goods deferred with no time limit and no interest
  • Duty on inputs used in exports remitted

What companies from here typically import

  • SMT and semiconductor equipment
  • Electronic components and modules
  • Precision machinery

Points to plan for

The licence is held by the Indian entity that operates the unit, with its own IEC and GST registration. Where goods qualify for a preferential tariff under a trade agreement, compare that rate with MOOWR deferral item by item. Confirm rates on ICEGATE.
