On 15th June 1999, the Government of India issued Notification No. 13(RE-99)/1997-2002, which amended the import policy for silk products under Notification No. 11(RE-99)/1997-2002. The amendment added a new clause to the notification, stating that silk consignments not certified by any foreign inspection agency and found to be below grade 2A will be deemed ineligible for import under the policy. These consignments, once tested by the Central Silk Board and confirmed to be substandard, will be treated as impermissible imports. Customs authorities are responsible for adjudicating such cases accordingly. This change aims to strengthen the enforcement of import standards and ensure the quality of silk products entering India.
