The post below covers only larger overview and not the changes at every row level. For Row level changes read the Comparative Table given after the below post.
Below is a structured, row-wise and column-wise differential analysis between the two Customs Notifications namely 45/2025 and 02/2026.
- Base Notification: Notification No. 45/2025-Customs, dated 24-10-2025
- Amending Notification: Notification No. 02/2026-Customs, dated 01-02-2026
Notification 02/2026-Customs does NOT replace Notification 45/2025-Customs; it selectively amends TABLE I of Notification 45/2025-Customs. Hence, the correct legal comparison is βOriginal Position vs Amended Positionβ.
A. Macro-Level Differences (Structural)
| Parameter | Notification 45/2025-Customs | Notification 02/2026-Customs |
| Nature | Parent / Consolidated exemption notification | Amending notification |
| Tables affected | TABLE I, II, III, IV | Only TABLE I |
| Legal technique | Fresh supersession & consolidation | Omissions, substitutions, insertions & sunset extensions |
| Core policy intent | Wide-ranging exemptions across sectors | Phasing out exemptions + time-bound extensions |
| Dominant theme | Incentivisation | Rationalisation & sunset discipline |
