It has now come to SEBI’s notice that some of the registrars are not aware of the said amendment though it was notified in the Government gazette.
Kind attention is invited to Paragraph 6.5 (v) of the EXIM Policy, 1997-2002, which stipulate that the export obligation shall be over and above the average level of exports of the same product achieved by him in the preceding three licensing years. Some exporters have requested this office to clarify whether the average level of exports of the same product to be achieved by them in the preceding three licensing years is to be determined taking into account the licensing year in which the EPCG application is filed or the licensing year on which the EPCG licence was issued. In this context, it is clarified that average of preceding three licensing years should be taken after taking into account the licensing year in which the EPCG application is filed.
Representations have been received from individual exporters as well as clarifications sought by different regional licensing authorities with regard to availibility of deemed exports benefits for supply of goods/services to Civil Constructions projects. The issue whether supply of goods/services to Civil Construction project should be entitled for deemed export benefits or not has been examined in detail in this office. It is clarified that supply of goods under para 10.2(d) of Exim Policy are entitled for deemed exports benefits.
