All Industry
Rates of Drawback, 2001-2002, were notified vide Notification No.29/
2001-Cus(N.T.) dated 1.6.2001 and the rates came into effect on 7.6.2001.
2. A
large number of representations were, however, received from the Export
Promotion Councils and exporters, subsequent to the announcement of these rates
pleading that the rates and the drawback caps were low. After examining these
representations, and the fresh data submitted by the Councils. Government have
revised drawback rates and caps in respect of select categories of textiles,
woven and knitted garments, including knitwear�s, and handicrafts (including
perfumed Aggarbatis) and the revised rates/ caps have been notified vide
Notification No.30/ 2001-Cus (N.T.) dated 22.6.2001. These Revised rates are
applicable from 7.6.2001. i.e., the notification has retrospective effect.
3. For
all those exports where the drawback had been allowed at a lower rate/ cap from
7.6.2001, supplementary claims may be entertained and processed in the light of
the revised rates/ caps. Wherever the provisional exports were allowed earlier
(i.e. from 7.6.2001), the claims may be finalised accordingly.
4. As
regards garments and knitwear�s, the respective categories should be given
liberal interpretation. For example, the revised SS.No.62.01/ 62.02 shall be
construed to cover woven shirts/ blouses/ tops, all sorts, i.e., all such
products whether of men�s/ boys�/ ladies� or of girls�. These SS Nos.
shall also cover shirt-blouses, blousons, or even sweatshirts. The declaration
as given by the exporters regarding the description should be accepted unless
there is substantive evidence for not accepting the same. No delay or harassment
on this count be caused to the exporters.
