It has been reported by Regional Licensing Authorities that during the strike period from 2.7.1998 to 13.7.1998 many of the exporters were unable to submit the applications for DEPB, Special Import License etc. within the time limit prescribed in the policy and as such those applications will become time barred. In accordance with Paragraph 15.17 of the Handbook of Procedures, 1997-2002, (Vol.1), applications received after expiry of prescribed date of receipt, but within six months from the last date.
The exporters of newspapers and periodicals are facing problems and are not able to get SIL even after satisfying the eligibility criteria of Paragraph 11.11 of Handbook of Procedures (Vol.1), because such exporters are granted permission by Reserve Bank of India to export their publications without completing G.R. formalities and / or by post parcel without completing PP form formalities.
This issue was considered in detail in consultation with Deptt. of Revenue. It was felt that, when the duty paid material is provided by DTA Unit to EOU in terms of Ministry of Finance instructions as stated above, then this duty paid should be refunded back. Accordingly, in respect of such direct exports from EOU based on the duty paid material supplied by the DTA units for job work, duty paid on the inputs would be refunded back by way of Brand Rate of Duty Drawback.
