Our expertise
In practice
For businesses whose economics live and die on cross-border movement, trade compliance is not a back-office function; it is the operating margin. Our trade practice covers the full regulatory surface: customs classification, valuation, and origin; DGFT and Foreign Trade Policy entitlements including EPCG, advance authorizations, and duty drawback; FEMA and exchange-control compliance; and the documentation discipline that holds it all together.
Structured trade compliance audits are the usual starting point. They quantify two things most trading businesses have never measured precisely: the duty being overpaid through misclassification and unused FTA preferences, and the exposure accumulating through positions that would not survive an audit.
Beyond compliance, we help trading businesses use the framework offensively: duty optimization structured to withstand scrutiny, AEO certification for faster clearances and deferred duty, and scenario planning that turns tariff volatility into a speed advantage, because the prepared can reroute sourcing while competitors are still assessing.
When trade friction escalates, we represent clients through it: SVB proceedings for related-party imports, anti-dumping and safeguard investigations on both the petitioning and responding side, and customs disputes through adjudication, Commissioner (Appeals), and CESTAT.
