Directorate General of Foreign Trade has issued Policy Circular No. 9 (RE-2001)/1997-2002, dated September 18, 2001, addressing requests for exemptions from import conditions related to textiles and textile articles outlined in Notification No. 3 (RE-2001)/1997-2002. The circular clarifies that the conditions on imports do not apply to textiles imported specifically for export production, referencing provisions in paragraph 5.40 of the Handbook of Procedures and conditions outlined in Notification No. 17/2001-customs. This allows bona fide exporters to import items such as labels and printed bags without a license or duty.
