Bank Guarantee Percentage for EPCG


  • Contents

Sir ,

What would be the bank guarantee percentage customs may impose for EPCG if importer in new but registered with excise as well as having permanent excise registration also SSI and RCMC as Manufacturer Exporter

As per Board circular 58/2004 its 15 % but some DGFT licencing authorities imposing preferably 100 % BG on Licence itself

My question is if he has endorsed on licence as 100 % ( Preferably ) who is the final deciding authority Customs or DGFT and what are the relevant judgments or circular or public notice for the same

Customs now started arguing that if such endorsement is there we will take 100 % BG

Pl refer pune DGFT Trade Notice No. 15/AM16 dated 09.06.2016 and

Policy Circular No. 35(RE-2000)/2000-2001 Dated: 19th December, 2000

Awaiting reply

Respected Sir,

According to me for startups 100% BG would be imposed by customs until export obligation is fulfilled.

But,

Many bank provide 100% BG by capping only 15% of your amount.

For example, If customs asks for 100000 BG then many bank provide that with only 15,000 actual blocked capital by Bank.

It is totally depend on bank & your relations with bank manager.

Dear Mr Kishan ,

Thanks for your valuable feedback ..

I have one doubt . ?

Any circular or notification which mention imposition of 100 % BG

Importer is standstill on circular no 58/2004 customs

As he is having central excise ( Permanent ) so 15 % BG is applicable

How to explain him ?

His bank not allowing for 15 % margin for BG
