Corrections in DGFT Notification 98(RE)/23 February 2012

[DGFT Notification No. 101 dated 2^nd March 2012]

Subject: Amendment in the subject of Notification No. 98 (RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 23.02.2012.

In exercise of the powers conferred by Section 5 of the Foreign Trade (Development & Regulation) Act, 1992 (No.22 of 1992) read with Para 2.1 of the Foreign Trade Policy, 2009-2014, the Central Government hereby makes the following amendments in  Notification No. 98 (RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 23.02.2012.

2. In Notification No. 98 (RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 23.02.2012, the “Subject” heading at the top was mentioned as “Permission for export of non-basmati rice through Land Custom Stations (LCS) on Indo-Bangladesh and Indo-Nepal border”. The contents of the notification, however, covered some other issues in addition to export through Land Custom Stations (LCS). Hence the “Subject” of the notification was not an accurate description of the contents. To avoid any chance of mis-interpretation, it is decided to amend the “Subject” to read as “Re-notification of Sl. No. 45 A of Chapter 10 of ITC(HS) Classification of export & import items” for export of non-basmati rice.

3. Effect of this notification

The subject of Notification No. 98 (RE-2010)/2009-14 dated 23.02.2012 has been changed to describe the contents more accurately.
