Information on details of shipping bills in cases where exporters who have inadvertently ticked (for No) instead of (for Yes) in Reward column of shipping bills while filing the EDI shipping bills, but have declared the intent in the affirmative (in wordings) in the shipping bill
The DGFT started with the computerization of the DGFT network in 1995 but even after a lapse of 20 years till date they have not been able to achieve the same. The reason is simple because no bureaucrat ever wants the power to slip from their hands or the opportunity to harass the exporters.
Directives are issued to all Regional Authorities for processing the application for MEIS claim with the objective of improving ease of doing business, simplifying the procedures, increasing transparency and to cutting down delays.
Certain amendments/corrections have been made to Table 2 of Appendix 3B of FTP 2015-20 to align them with the ITC(HS) codes 2017 for exports made w.e.f. 01.01.2017.
It has come to notice of this Directorate that when exporters login into DGFT System for MEIS application, sometimes Shipping Bill data is not found available in DGFT System. It takes considerable time to get the SB data available in DGFT System and, therefore, availing of FTP benefits, like MEIS, by exporter is delayed.
A correction has been made in the MEIS Appendix 3B description in Entry no. 113. to align it with the ITC HS present at the time of the notification of Public Notice 02, dated 01.04.2015. This correction is in effect from 01.04.2015

While restoring the benefits under the export promotion schemes of duty free imports under Advanced Authorization, Export Promotion Capital Goods and 100% Export Oriented Units and thus resolving the problem of blocked working capital for exporters following the roll out of GST, the FTP review has focused on increasing the incentives for labour intensive MSME sectors.
Amendments have been made in the rates of reward for certain Sl.Nos of Table 2 of Appendix 3B of FTP 2015-20 for exports made w.e.f 01.11.2017 to 30.06.2018 and Table 3 specifying List of Ineligible categories for Duty Credit Scrip entitlement under MEIS.
