Sub: Review of Conditional Exemptions or Concessional BCD rates for Imports – reg
Kindly refer to the Council’s Circular No. Ref. MR/CIR/2023-24/00128, dtd. 13 June 2023, seeking suggestion on continuation or abolition of Conditional Exemptions/ Duties that are currently available on import – Copy re-produced below for ready reference.
However, till date we have not received any input.

This Conditional Customs Duty rate/ exemption on import is valid upto 31st March 2024 and now, the matter is being reviewed by the Ministry whether the same to be continued or not. The Office Memorandum received in this regard from the Ministry is attached herewith for details.
In view of the above, we would once again request the views/ comments of the Members on as to whether such exemptions need to be continued after 31st March 2024 or allowed to be lapsed after 31st March 2024, are requested with justification, in the format given in the attached Annexure – I. Members may send their respective views/ comments by email at ed@srtepc.in, baruah@srtepc.in as soon as possible, so as to help us send a consolidated reply to the Ministry as solicited.
