#KCMFlash Draft Regulations and Master Direction – Export and Import of Goods and Services The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has released draft regulations and a master direction on the export and import of goods and services for public feedback. The RBI's focus is shifting from detailed operational guidance to providing broad parameters, with AD Banks expected to create their internal policies for day-to-day management of foreign trade transactions. Key changes include broader guidelines for AD Banks to handle export and import transactions, the merging of export and import directions into one document, declaration of export of services, stricter rules for caution-listing exporters with overdue realizations etc. We have summarised the draft regulations and the changes with the extant regulations in our #KCMFlash. This Flash is contributed by Darshana Mankad and Nitin Dingankar. Hope you find this an interesting read!

Banks should not hold up crediting exporters money due to the fault of ICEGATE Exporters have been facing challenges related to the non-fulfillment of export obligations (EO) against advance authorizations and EPCG authorizations issued between 2002 and 2007. While the government demands records dating back 15-20 years, exporters argue that they are only required to preserve records for 2-3 years from the date of redemption. The situation is exacerbated by discrepancies in the EDPMS system, where shipping bills are not reflected. Many exporters report similar issues, but some banks are withholding credits while others are not. If your bank is uncooperative, consider escalating the matter to higher authorities or even the RBI.

A Letter of Credit (LC) discounting is a financial service that allows exporters to receive immediate payment for goods or services sold, rather than waiting for the buyer to pay on the due date. There are two main types of LC discounting: 1. *Local LC Discounting*: - *Local LC* refers to a Letter of Credit issued by a bank in the same country as the seller (exporter). - *Process*: The exporter presents the LC to a local bank, which then pays the exporter the value of the LC minus a discount fee. The bank waits for the buyer to pay on the due date. - *Benefits*: Provides immediate cash flow to the exporter, reduces credit risk, and can be more cost-effective due to lower fees. 2. *Foreign LC Discounting*: - *Foreign LC* refers to a Letter of Credit issued by a bank in a different country than the seller (exporter). - *Process*: Similar to local LC discounting, but involves an international bank or the exporter’s local bank with international banking facilities. The bank pays the exporter the value of the LC minus a discount fee and then collects payment from the foreign bank. - *Benefits*: Helps exporters manage international trade risks, improves cash flow, and mitigates the risk of foreign exchange fluctuations. Both types of LC discounting are crucial in facilitating international and domestic trade by providing liquidity and reducing payment risks for exporters. www.loanbazaaronline.com https://lnkd.in/epcuDwM #Finance #loanservices #digitalmarketing #graphicdesigning #financialservices #startupfunding #FinancialAnalyst #loanbazaar #dsa #nbfc

RBI has released draft regulations and draft directions to simplify the exchange control regulations for import and export. A quick reading indicates: i) it seems even export of services will be covered under the prescribed declarations (which currently is typically limited to export of goods and software) – this will have a significant impact on service providers including law firms, bankers, consultants in India etc. who advise offshore clients; ii) enhanced roles and responsibilities given to the AD to determine compliance with the regulations and also consider exemptions in specific cases. The attempt to simplify the regulations is a welcome move. Comments can be shared with RBI by September 1, 2024. https://lnkd.in/guRA28qH #regulatoryupdates #RBI #FEMA #export #import #banks
