However you can claim rebate of duty paid on inputs used in the manufacture of excisable goods which are exported under rule 18 of Central Excise Rules, 2002 .

If cenvat credit availed on the inputs then the same can be utilised for payment of duty on the final product exported and the same can be claimed as rebate under rule 18 .
