discharge the export obligation and the foreign exchange earned through “Construction & Engg. Services is to be considered towards redemption of the case under
Para 5.4 of Exim
Policy 200207 of ‘Cement’ may be counted for fulfillment of Export Obligation. Since, the reference is in nature of clarification, the Committee decided to clarify that the foreign exchange earnings made through export of ‘Construction and Engineering Services’ in place of export of ‘Cement’ (the export product endorsed in the Authorization) can be counted towards fulfillment of EO in respect of EPCG Authorization No. 0630000091 dated 01.10.2003. However, for regularization of the exports already made, the case is recommended to DG for relaxation under Para 2.5 of FTP subject to the condition that Average Export Obligation is maintained. The matter was discussed with DG. It emerged during the discussion that whenever an alternate product is allowed {for licence(s) issued during 01.04.2003 to 17.04.2013} in case of export of goods any other goods only can be exported and where EO is for services any other services can only be exported to fulfill the Export Obligation. In other words, for export of goods alternate item will only be goods and for rendering services alternate item will only be services. 38 M/s Kerala State Rubber Co operative 01/36/218/49/AM 13/EPCG1 Rubco Huat Woods Pvt.
