Case No.44. M/s. Amulya Exports Limited
F.No. 01/60/162/10601071/AM12/EFGC(PRC) Subject: Request for revalidation of DFIA Nos. 1110015068 dt. 16.3.07 (ii) 11100156069 dt. 16.3.07 (iii) 1110015070 dt. 16.3.07 (iv) 1110015071 dt. 16.3.07 The committee noted that the firm has represented against the rejection already done in PRC Meeting No. 14/AM12 dated: 12.07.2011. The committee observed that the firm had chosen to import only after obtaining EODC. It was further noted that the firm themselves took sufficient time to obtain BRCs and also the clarifications regarding the description of exported goods mentioned by them on the shipping bills which were quite different from what was mentioned on the DFIAs. The firm has also stated that in the last few days of the DFIA validity, there was delay by customs also on account of data transmission error. The committee noted that the delay in the instant case on utilization of DFIAs has essentially happened because of the judgment made by the firm and their own choice of writing a different description of the product on the shipping bill. At no point of time there was any direction to the firm not to undertake imports under these DFIAs It was further noted that DFIAs have already been endorsed with transferability and keeping in view all facts, the aforesaid 4 DFIAs can not be revalidated. The committee rejected the request of the firm.

Subject: Request for clubbing of two advance licence no. 3410017043 dt. 3.10.2006 & 3410019294 dt. 27.7.2007
The committee noted that as per Public Notice no. 79 dt. 13.10.2011, Regional Authorities of DGFT have been empowered to do clubbing for authorizations which are issued within 3 years from the date of issue of the earliest authorization sought to be clubbed. As such, this case could have been considered at the level of RA also. However, since this application was already filed in DGFT prior to issuance of PN. NO. 79 dt. 13.10.2011, the committee decided to club the above 2 advance authorizations for the purpose of regularization. RA may grant necessary extension in EO required with the stipulated composition fee for clubbing and regularization. RA is also directed to examine the case in terms of Public Notice No. 23 dated 4.12.2009 and make necessary endorsements regarding value addition of minimum 15% or as stipulated in the
authorization whichever is higher. The 15% value addition for evaluating entitlement is to be applied on the entire FOB and CIF of the authorization. RA should ensure proper accounting of the duty free inputs with reference to the export product while clubbing the authorizations.
