F.No. HQRPRCAPPLY00000744AM26

Subject: Extension of Import Validity Period against EPCG Authorization No. 0231002842 dated 11/08/2022.

The applicant had sought personal hearing in terms of Para 2.60 of FTP-2023, which was afforded on 04.08.2025. Mr. Bipul Thakuria, Mr. Ravindra Kumar, Mr. Avishek Ballodia appeared through Video Conferencing on behalf of the firm and made the following submissions: -

Applicant Statement: The Applicant is a category-l Miniratna PSU under the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Govt. of India and a three-star rated export house, engaged in manufacturing of petroleum products and natural gas. The Applicant is undertaking an expansion project to increase its production capacity from 3 MMTPA to 9 MMTPA at Numaligarh, Assam with an investment outlay of INR 28,000 Cr. (approx.). For the same, the Applicant is procuring capital goods from within India and outside India. The Applicant has obtained multiple EPCG licenses from RA Kolkata DGFT for import of capital goods & indigenous procurement of capital goods (including EPCG license 0231002842 dated August 11, 2022 for indigenous procurement of capital goods). The Applicant issued a purchase order on the indigenous supplier, Bliss Anand Private Limited vide PO No. 4500024528-Z_N dated April 27, 2022, for procurement of capital goods (Membrane Package along with spares) which will be used in manufacture of export product i.e. Diesel. Subsequently, on August 11, 2022, EPCG license No.

ril 27, 2022, for procurement of capital goods (Membrane Package along with spares) which will be used in manufacture of export product i.e. Diesel. Subsequently, on August 11, 2022, EPCG license No. 0231002842 was obtained by the Applicant from RA, Kolkata DGFT and invalidation letter was obtained on September 19,2022 which was duly provided to

the Supplier. The import / procurement validity period of EPCG license No. 0231002842 dated August 11, 2022 was 24 months from the date of import as mentioned in the EPCG license. However, the capital goods (membrane package) were supplied on March 01, 2025 after a delay of 203 days [as the import validity period in the EPCG license was expired on August 11, 2024]. Further, the spares involved in the EPCG license are yet to be supplied by the Supplier. The delay in procurement of capital goods was beyond the control of the Applicant since there was a delay of 7 months by the Applicants technical consultant in approving the design & drawings and providing manufacturing clearance for the capital goods to be supplied by the supplier. This delay was due to the technical complexities of the unit in which the capital goods were to be utilized by the Applicant. This delay had a cascading effect on the import of components by the supplier, thereby leading to further delay in manufacture and supply of capital goods to the Applicant within the timeline permitted under captioned EPCG license. The Applicant anticipates sufficient export of goods viz.

ding to further delay in manufacture and supply of capital goods to the Applicant within the timeline permitted under captioned EPCG license. The Applicant anticipates sufficient export of goods viz. diesel in future from its upcoming expansion project to meet the export obligations attached to the above EPCG license. In view of the above, the Applicant humbly requests the Hon'ble Committee members to consider their request and allow extension of import validity period by a period of 12 months so that the supply of capital goods against EPCG license after expiry of import validity period is regularized and the Applicant gets additional time for procurement of spares against the EPCG license.

Decision: The Committee went through the statements made by the firm and discussed the matter at length and observed that the applicant has not submitted any cogent reason/ justification in support of any genuine hardship faced by them. Accordingly, the Committee decided to reject the request.

Meeting No.09AM26 held on 29.07.2025

Subject: Extension of EOP against Advance Authorization No. 5011000524 dated 12/07/2022.

Applicant Statement: We have obtained above mentioned Advance authorization from DGFT, Nagpur office. We have made about 70% exports against this Advance Authorization. But due to slow down in international market, some financial problems, we were unable to fulfill the Export obligation during stipulated period. Slow down in the international market was due to Russia- Ukraine war. Rapeseed lecithin is considered a suitable alternative to sunflower lecithin, particularly due to its non-allergenic properties. India does not produce sunflower lecithin raw material domestically and has traditionally relied on imports, primarily from Ukraine. Following the onset of the Russia? Ukraine conflict, the supply of sunflower lecithin raw material was disrupted. As a result, demand for rapeseed lecithin increased within the EU market, as customers sought reliable alternatives. However, within a short span, the supply of sunflower raw material resumed from both Ukraine and Russia to India. This led to a sharp decline in demand for rapeseed lecithin. Since then, sunflower raw material imports have continued without significant disruption, reducing the market requirement for rapeseed lecithin. Due to this shift, we have faced challenges in exporting the imported rapeseed lecithin material. Although we are making gradual progress in exporting existing stocks, it will take some more time to stabilize the demand.

However, due to Sudden Unanticipated Consecutive Cancellation of Export Orders aS a consequence of sudden increase/skyrocketing in the pricing of Nickel and Chrome Worldwide the Company's raw material cost Sky Rocketed since Nickle and Chrome were the essential ingredients and were integral components of the Raw Material ?Valve Steel Billet?. Nickel Prices surged 410 times and beyond throughout the period from 2008 to 2012 exploding from a mere 10,000 $ (PMT) to a Staggering 51,000 $ ( PMT ) and Chrome Prices surged by 54 times and beyond throughout the period from 2008 to 2012.

n Mining Industries across California, Montana, Michigan, Minnesota and Alaska, the five biggest Nickel producing states in the country had serious repercussion on the Engineering and Steel Industry. Since Nickel and Chrome are the main ingredient in Valve Steel production, the ban, accompanying socio economic and political crises and various other external factors triggered and ultimately resulted in the Company's raw material costs Sky Rocketing beyond our worst fears, leaving us trapped in a dire financial crisis. Nickel exceeding even the selling price of the entire finished ~6Iwe

product itself intended for exports in the International Markets. The impact of the ban, compounded by the socio-economic and political turmoil and various other external factors, was such or so severe that it effectively Annihilated the financial Stability of our company. Nickel and Chrome prices skyrocketed beyond our capacity to absorb, leading to a drastic and dramatic increase in production costs. Inevitably, Our financial resources were quickly depleted to nothing as we still continued to import, we struggled extensively on the verge to maintain operations, further unprecedented surge in global Nickel and Chrome prices, exacerbated by severe supply chain disruptions, devastated our production Capacity, forcing an almost complete shutdown. This ultimately resulted in substantial delays and cancellations, leaving us unable to meet our contractual obligations and from timely delivering export orders and final products to our customers.

. This ultimately resulted in substantial delays and cancellations, leaving us unable to meet our contractual obligations and from timely delivering export orders and final products to our customers. The severe spike in Nickel and Chrome prices led to a global dearth and economic state of famine as suppliers struggled to meet demand. Our Company faced Catastrophic Failure in securing the necessary and essential Raw Material ?Valve Steel Billet? to maintain Our production schedules due to affordability, as we could not afford to procure nickel and chrome based raw material in the long run at such ?off the chart? prices. At the same time, our customers were ultimately adamant and unwavering, strongly expressing their disapproval and making it unequivocally clear that they would not tolerate or accept the passing on of these skyrocketing costs, demonstrating a firm unwillingness to understand or accommodate the extraordinary circumstances over which we had absolutely no control and which were completely out of our hands, driving these price surges, particularly concerning the finished goods already manufactured by us using the imported raw materials procured at a 410-fold increase in price to produce the finished/export product, ?Valve Steel Bar?. Instructing that we strictly adhere to the prices agreed upon in the contract / executed agreement, our customers commanded an expectation that, in the real world, was not possible for us to fulfill, as such a situation would have lead to huge losses.

reed upon in the contract / executed agreement, our customers commanded an expectation that, in the real world, was not possible for us to fulfill, as such a situation would have lead to huge losses. Consequently, renegotiations with TRW Automotives Worldwide and other Customer failed. Despite the unprecedented surge in Nickel and Chrome prices, our customers showed no willingness to understand or demonstrate flexibility, ultimately leading to widespread delays and immediate production cutoff coming, causing a Complete Standstill.

Meeting No.09AM26 held on 29.07.2025

Subject: Request for relaxation of procedural non-compliance with Steel Import Monitoring System during the period from September 2024 to December 2024. Applicant Statement: We hereby submit this application under Para 2.59 of the Foreign Trade Policy, requesting a one-time relaxation for procedural noncompliance arising from a delay in obtaining SIMS registration, due to factors beyond our control. Pursuant to DGFT Notification No. 17/2015-20, our steel imports require prior SIMS registration. Until July 25, 2024, we were regularly complying through the DGFT SIMS portal. However, due to the migration of SIMS to a new MoS-hosted platform (SIMS 2.0) ? as per Trade Notice No. 10/2024-25 ? and a change in portal requirements (now requiring a valid NOC from MoS before registration), we encountered unavoidable delays. Although we promptly applied for NOCs for our products (which are classified similarly to, but distinct from, Bead Wires for Tyres under IS 4824:2022), the TC-QCO committee failed to convene any meetings after 04 September 2024, despite scheduled timelines. As a result, we were unable to obtain NOCs or register on SIMS before the arrival of our consignments. Despite multiple representations to MoS, DGFT, and other relevant authorities (details enclosed in Annexure 1), our shipments totaling 112 containers across 30 BOEs with an assessable value of INR 20.48 crores were held up at the port during November and December 2024. We incurred substantial demurrage, operational costs, and production losses as a result (Annexure 2).
