Aloha Suvayu,

I'd be inclined to use #+LaTeX: %text

Alternatively (and perhaps more robustly with multiline comments) you could make certain to \usepackage{verbatim} and then use 

#+BEGIN_COMMENT 
text 
#+END_COMMENT

following the example of block level markup here:

hth,

Hi Orgers,

I wanted to insert comments in the exported tex file for latex export.
Is there an standard way to do that? I found normal '%text' gets
exported as '\%text'. However I can export comments by putting
'%%text', it gets exported as '%\%text'.

Is there any other solutions out there?
