ICEGATE registrationfor customs.

ICEGATE is Indian customs' online portal. Importers and exporters register to track shipments, pay duty, file documents and, crucially, register the bank account where export refunds are paid. Many stuck IGST refunds trace back to ICEGATE. We register you and fix refund problems.
