it appears it is trading. BCD +IGST payable. May be exported on payment of IGST and claim refund of IGST paid on export of the goods. Alternatively, drawback under Section 74 of Customs Act may be claimed, if identification issues can be established.

You can Import and Bond the items in a customs bonded warehouse on arrival of the cargo. No payment of duty is to be done. You have to execute a Double Duty Bond on Stamp Paper. Once Bonded, You can approach customs for permission to export from the bonded warehouse. Once permitted you can export the cargo.No Duty payment involved.

Even if you import in custom bonded warehouse, bank guarantee has to be given, so best option would be "Switch B/L" Transactions as goods would be exported directly via it under your firm name.
