Circular No. ES/35/2015-16
To: Members of the Council
Sub : Application for Duty Credit Scrips of additional 2% under Market
Linked Focus Product Scheme (MLFPS) - reg.
The Council is glad to inform you that DGFT has issued Trade Notice 08/2015 dated 3rd November, 2015 to all EPCs about the Public Notice No. 53 dated 27.2.2014 issued by DGFT which allowed grant of additional Duty Credit Scrips @ 2% to certain specified products under the Market Linked Focus Product Scheme (MLFPS) for exports made w.e.f. 1.3.2014 to 31.8.2014 if exported to the EU (27 countries).
In this connection, DGFT had received representations from EPCs and Associations informing them that a few exporters who had already filed their application for FPS and received their claim but did not get the additional benefits as per Public Notice No. 53 dated 27.2.2014 which they were eligible. They were also unable to file their applications online as their shipping bills have already been utilised to claim benefit under FPS and the system does not allow the claim of additional benefit on the utilised shipping bills
To sort out the issue, DGFT has informed the EPCs to direct the exporters to file a letter with the concerned Regional Authorities (RAs) of DGFT to claim additional benefit intimating the details of earlier application No. (E-Com Reference no.) file no. etc. along with shipping bill number, date of shipping bill, description etc. and coverage indicating serial no. of the Public Notice. The Regional Authorities of DGFT would verify the claim and thereafter issue supplementary scrip.
Members who are eligible for these additional benefits may apply with the Regional Authorities (RAs) of DGFT and claim your Duty Credit Scrip under Market Linked Focus Product Scheme (MLFPS).
Thanking you,
V.ANIL KUMAR
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
