Eligibility of courier exports for EPCG obligation


  • Contents

Dear members,

Wanted to enquire if we do export of goods outside India physically, through courier mode, can the same be considered towards fulfilment of export obligation under EPCG scheme?

Regards

Bharat

Yes, if foreign exchange is received.

But the courier export regulations state that courier exports cannot be done for shipments meant for EPCG, drawback etc. Hence, won't the authority deny benefit on that ground.

Yes, in my view there is the possibility of denying the benefit.

Dear Bharat Garg,

Pl. go through the following Rules. Rule 2(e)(iii) excludes export of goods under EPCG Scheme

COURIER IMPORTS AND EXPORTS (CLEARANCE) REGULATIONS, 1998

M.F. (D.R.) Notification No. 87/98-Cus. (N.T.), dated 9-11-1998 as amended.

Dear Kasturi Sethi,

So the rule 2(e)(iii) excludes goods meant to be exported under EPCG and hence, the authority may deny benefit of setoff of courier exports against EPCG obligation - is that your view also?

Regards

Bharat

Yes. As per Rules posted above by me, Dr.Govindarajan, Sir is right and my reply at serial no 1 above, stands amended accordingly.

I think now the concept is clear to you.

Checked the status of basic notification. Examined all amendments. Relevant amendments are posted above.

Export of goods through courier is still in exclusion clause.

Also read carefully above three amendments.
