The scheme is quite beneficial to Manufacturer exporters
as they can import their CG at a substantial discount. Especially for those
manufacturers whose final product is not excisable or is exempt from excise
duty (like those in Uttaranchal) since they cannot take the CENVAT credit of
the CVD paid on imports and Excise Duty paid in Domestic markets.
Merchant Exporters tied with the
supporting manufacturers can also utilize the scheme for concessional duty
import of Capital Goods to be installed at the supporting manufacturers.
EPCG can be taken for the full projects where exports of
goods or services can be envisaged by the use of the project or alternative
products. This can be taken for Captive Power units also. EPCG can be taken
along with Project Import scheme in case of new Projects.
Various service providers/exporters can take EPCG route
to reduce their Capital Cost. Service Providers like Hotels, Hospitals, Tour
Operators, Taxi Operators, Construction Companies, Logistics companies can
utilize the scheme to import/procure from domestic market, their capital
goods at a substantially reduced costs. The EO can be fulfilled by Forex
Earnings through providing services, like that of Foreign Guests staying in
the hotel, medical tourism etc.
Certain other sectors like Retail Sector in the country,
Port Projects etc. can also utilize EPCG scheme to their advantage.
We can assist you in assessing the feasibility of the
scheme for your exports/domestic supplies, planning for maximum benefits,
documentation, application preparations, representation and coordination
with DGFT and other concerned Government Departments till you finally get
the Authorisation.
In case of domestic procurement we can assist in getting necessary
invalidations from the authority, and the refund of Excise Duty.
Later we will assist you in redemptions of the Authorization.
We also take matters of clarifications/relaxations etc. from the DGFT
committees.
