The revised DEPB rate (value cap) would be applicable on exports made from the date of its notification and also for the shipment passed by the Customs on or after 14.1.2003 on provisional basis pending fixation of revised DEPB rate for this item.
Representations have been received by this office that in case of export of pharmaceutical formulations under DEPB, sometimes rate is worked out in fractions when calculated as per the formula prescribed by the Policy Circular No.20 dated 31.7.2002. They have further stated that as per existing practice, the DEPB entitlement rate is rounded off to the nearest digit. However, while verifying the DEPB, some Customs authorities are reducing the DEPB amount in respect of cases where the rate has been rounded off to the higher side but where the rate has been rounded off on the lower side, there is no increase allowed in the DEPB amount.
Import of SKO shall be allowed through State Trading Enterprises (STEs) i.e. IOC, BPCL, HPCL and IBP for all purposes with STC being nominated as a State Trading Enterprise (STE) for supplies to Advance Licence holders.
