EPCG Authorisation

EPCG Authorisation is a scheme launched by the Indian government to encourage the production of high-quality products and services for export. Under this system, a firm may import capital goods without a tariff from foreign nations under the Foreign Trade Policy (2015 – 20 RE 17) (0 percent duty). The government has imposed an “export duty” on the importer of capital products as the program implies that exports be promoted. Under existing rules, the duty avoided is six times the export obligation and can be fulfilled within six years.
EPCG Authorization Scheme acts as one of the most advantageous elements to the Indian Exporters. In compliance with this scheme, Export Business Houses do not have to pay huge amounts of money in advance for the imported machinery. The availability of up-to-date technology at their disposal allows them to produce higher-quality goods and services at a faster rate, resulting in increased demand and higher pricing in the international market. It allows the import of capital goods for value addition at Zero Custom duty.

Eligibility Criteria
Manufacturer exporters with or without supporting manufacturer(s), merchant exporters with supporting manufacturer(s), and service providers are all covered by the EPCG Authorisation Scheme.
