Prc08AM19 - Indian Biscuits

The document discusses the expiration and revalidation of DFIA (Duty Free Import Authorization) certificates for certain firms, noting that some DFIAs could not be utilized before expiry due to delays in clarification. The committee granted a 45-day revalidation for specific DFIAs while denying revalidation for others that had expired earlier. Additionally, it addresses the concerns of biscuit manufacturers regarding restrictions imposed by Notification No-31 and allows for relaxation in granting EODC (Export Obligation Discharge Certificate) and transferability under certain conditions.
