Dear Member,

This is to inform you that CBIC has issued Circular No. 50/2018-Customs dated 6th  December, 2018 by amending notifications related to EOU/EHTP/STP/BTP schemes in order to align them with the present FTP, 2015-2020 as well as to remove redundancies that had crept in over the time on account of changes/supersession of certain other notifications mentioned therein and legal developments such as the introduction of GST and exempting the EOUs from the application of the Customs warehousing provisions
