(2) The Import Policy for Registered Exporters provides the import of plastics raw materials against export ol various products and more particularly against plashes products. There is also a provision for claiming import of som* of these raw materials on the. basis of AU. licences. In view of satisfactory arrangements having been evolved for supply of some of these raw materials from indigenous sources, the Government of India have Issued a scheme for supply oJt raw materials at international prices by indigenous manufacturers for, export production. The salient features of the Scheme are that for the time being (i) Polyethylene granules/moulding powder, both low density and high density, (hereinafter re- ferred to as polyethylene), (ii) polyyinyl chloride (PVC) resin and composition .(hereinafter referred to as (PVC), (iii) polystyrene, (iv) PVC sheeting and (v) PVC foam sheeting and cloth are covered under the Scheme- A 6ystem of release of supplies from the manufacturers who have agreed to supply law materials at international prices under the scheme, has Deen mtrouuccd. The particulars of raw material and the names of the manufacturers are specified In Annexure I to this Public Notice.
(3i The registered exporters and their nominees seeking to secure supplies of the materials listed- in Annexure I to this Public Notice are required to as- certain from the manufacturers mentioned thereto whether they are willing to supply the specification and quantity of material required within three months at the concessional price corresponding to the international price fixed- The liicensdiig authorities will consider requests from Registered JCxporters or their nominees for import of such of the raw materials as are permissible for Import for export production only if their applications are accompanied by letters from all the concerned manufacturers expressing their inability to supply the material. In order that applications may not be delayed on account of the manufacturers' certificate, registered exporters are advised to write to the manufacturers suffi- ciently in advance by registered A.D. If no reply is received from them within 7 daya of the receipt of the letter, it may be assumed that manufacturers are not in a position to supply. In that case, Instead of the manufacturer's certificate, re- ferred to above, an applicant for licence may forward a copy of nis letter to the manufacturer together with the declaration to the effect that no reply has been received within 7 days or subsequently from any or all of the manufacturers.
(4) The scheme contemplates release of materials at international prices by Indigenous manufacturers to the extent they are nominated under the registered exporters policy. The manufacturer so nominated may utilise his nomination for either:
(I) import of materials permissible to such a nominated manufacturer under
the Registered Exporters policy, or
(II) adjusting against the export obligation imposed on him under a C-G-
licence.
In the former case, the details of the nomination have to be settled between the two parties and application made to the licensing authorities by the exporter and the nominee in the norman course. In the letter case, applications for release orders for supply of Polyethlene/PVC/PVC sheeting from the manufacturers are to be made alongwith the import application under the Registered exporters policy In the form at Annexure II to this Public Notice. Part I of the application i" to be filled in by the Registered Exporter and the nominee for the re'ease orders and forwarded In quadruplicate to the licensing authority. The licensing authority will fill in Part II of the form and return three copies to the person in whose favour the release order is issued. After obtaining the release order the person getting the material will fill in Part III of the lorm and forward two copies there- of to the supplier of the material-
f5) A person holding a licence under the import policy for registered exporters, for import of polyethlene/PVC, may within the validity period of the licence apply to the concerned licensing authority in the form at Annexure III to this Public Notice. The disposal of tht four copies of the application to be forwarded, will mutastis mutandis, be as in paragraph 4.
(6) All releases of raw material made under the scheme for supply of indigen- ous plastic raw materials will be subject to the condition that the material re- leased would be used for manufacture in the factory of the person In whose favour release order is issued-
(7) Registered Exporters are advised to contact the Export Proraotion Councils with whom they are registered for obtaining full dfttails of the scheme and the procedure for obtaining releases thereunder-
