Outcome: Annual EU GSP duty saving: EUR 85,000 (shared value between Indian exporter price reduction and German buyer duty saving). RoDTEP annual benefit: INR 1.8 crore (approximately USD 215,000). Total annual combined benefit: approximately USD 340,000. Investment: PHARMEXCIL RCMC (INR 15,000/year) plus COO issuance cost (INR 1,200 per shipment).
