6. Awards will be granted for the financial year 2015-16 (April-March)

7. Application for awards will be considered subject to the condition that nothing adverse about the business dealings of the applicant has come to the notice of the Council and/or the Authorities.

8. Members can apply for awards in various categories and will be eligible for more than one award.  There is no restriction on number of awards a member can receive.

1. Application for awards has to be submitted in the proforma prescribed by the Council, duly certified by the Chartered Accountant.

10. SEPARATE APPLICATIONS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED FOR AWARDS IN DIFFERENT CATEGORIES.
11. Selection for awards will be made by the Sub-Committee appointed by the Committee of Administration of the Council.  The decision of the Council will be final and cannot be contested.  The Council reserves the right to re-verify the export figures submitted by the applicant.

3. Criteria

1. Minimum export performance to qualify for SRTEPC Special Award (For overall export performance) is Rs.75 crores.  To qualify for the Award in the “Merchant Exporters” Category, the minimum export is Rs.25 crores.  Minimum exports to qualify for ‘Certificate of Merit’ is Rs.5 crores.  The salient feature of various awards and the respective terms and conditions are given in Annexure A (pdf).

2. If there is only one applicant in a Category; the award will be granted only if there is growth in exports of the applicant compared to the previous year.

3. ‘Certificate of Merit’ will be given to member companies with three years of consecutive exports including the relevant year. The eligibility for award in this case is Rs.5 crores of minimum exports.   Exporters who get awards in other categories are not eligible for Certificate of Merit.

4. Export performance includes only those exports which have been effected in the name of the applicant.

5. Export performance will be computed on the basis of FOB (excluding insurance, freight and commission) price in Indian rupees.

6. Awards in various categories will be given based on ‘Best’ export performance (except for Certificate of Merit).  While deciding on ‘Best’ Export Performance due weightage will be given to value of exports and growth of exports.  This will be calculated based on the following criterion:

Export Performance + 25% of the difference in export performance on previous year.

Illustration

I	II	III	IV	V
Last year performance	Current year performance	Difference in Exports	25%of Difference in Exports	Relative performance (II + IV)
100	100	+ 0	+ 0	100 + 0
100	90	-10	-  2.5	90-2.5 = 87.5
90	95	+ 5	+ 1.25	95+1.25 = 96.25
80	90	+10	+ 2.5	90 + 2.5 = 92.5
70	85	+15	+ 3.75	85 + 3.75 = 88.75
60	80	+20	+ 5	80 + 5 = 85
50	75	+25	+6.25	75 + 6.25 =81.25
40	70	+30	+ 7.5	70 + 7.5 = 77.5
30	65	+35	+ 8.75	65 + 8.75 = 73.75
20	60	+40	+ 10	60 + 10 = 70
10	55	+45	+ 11.25	55 + 11.25 = 66.25
0	50	+50	+ 12.5	50 + 12.5 = 62.5

For the purpose of calculation, the criterion works as follows :

If export growth is positive for the current year compared to the previous year:

25% of the difference is added to the export figure of the current year:

For e.g. (Exports in Rs. crores)

2014-15        2015-16          Difference      25% of Difference      Performance

260                 290                   30                       + 7.5                            297.5

If export growth is negative for the current year compared to the previous year:

25% of the difference is deducted from the export figures of the current year:

2014-15      2015-16           Difference      25% of Difference     Performance

260                 230                  - 30                    - 7.5                                222.5

The companies having the higher value will be eligible for Awards.
