Our 30-Year Story

Compliance without the fog, since 2011

A Mumbai advisory practice founded on one discipline: exporters deserve complete certainty from DGFT and customs — never administrative red tape.

Who we are

Counsel, not an agency

Northgate Export Studio opened its doors in 2011 as a compact Andheri East practice filing pre-RoDTEP claims for textile exporters across Tiruppur and Mumbai. Fifteen years on we advise 1000+ active exporters through every major port — Nhava Sheva, Mundra, Chennai, Tuticorin, Kolkata and inland ICDs — with ₹150+ crore in incentives realized, every rupee traced to ledger.

We practise rather than intermediate. Our consultants appear in person before DGFT Zonal Offices, the Policy Relaxation Committee and Customs adjudicating authorities. Documentation, portal filings, show-cause replies and scrip trading all stay in-house, under one roof, with a single accountable partner on your file.

Our mission stands as on day one: lifting the standard of government incentive schemes open to Indian exporters — with customs consultancy that treats your margin as the brief.

How we work

Three principles guiding every file

01

Precision before filing

HSN mapping, norm calculations and document checks finish before any portal receives your application — so filings clear the first time.

02

Representation in person

We face DGFT and customs officers in person. Counsel argues your file; it is never couriered into a queue.

03

Support till realization

Licences followed to EODC, claims followed to ledger credit, disputes followed to orders. Closure remains the deliverable.
