Dear Members,
We would like to inform you that the O/o DGFT New Delhi has issued Policy Circular no. 01/2015-20 dated 26/07/2016 regarding relief in Average Export Obligation for EPCG authorisation holders in terms of Para 5.19 of Hand Book of Procedures of FTP 2015-20.
As you might be aware, Para 5.19 of the Hand Book of Procedures of FTP 2015-20 permits re-fixation of Annual Average Export obligation, in case the export in any sector/ product group declines by more than 5%. This implies that the sector/product group which witnessed such decline in 2015-16 as compared to 2014-15, would be entitled to such a relief.
A list of such product groups showing the percentage decline in exports during 2015-16 as compared to 2014-15 is Annexed with above circular . As per the circular, All DGFT RA's have been requested to re-fix the annual average export obligation for EPCG Authorizations for 2015-16 accordingly. Reduction, if any, in the EO should be endorsed in the licence file of RA and also in the Amendment Sheet to EPCG authorisation holder.
