Members of the Council
Dear Members,
Sub: Focus Product scheme
As members are aware in the Annual Supplement to Foreign Trade Policy announced on 7th April 2006, a new scheme called ‘Focus Product Scheme’ was introduced as a measure to incentivise export of such products which have high employment intensity in rural and semi urban areas so as to offset the inherent infrastructure inefficiencies and other associated costs involved in marketing of these products.
In this regard, the Council already sent detailed circular on June 19, 2006 giving salient features of the ‘Focus Product Scheme’ and also the list of eligible products.
The DGFT has now issued Public Notice No.79(RE-2006)/2004-09 dated 17th January 2007 amending the provisions of the scheme which are appended in enclosure.
The DGFT also notified the Application Form and guidelines for availing the Focus Product Scheme. These are available in the DGFT website www.dgft.delhi.nic.in . These are also hosted in the Council’s website
www.leatherindia.org under ‘Policy’ heading.
This is for information, reference and necessary guidance of member-exporters in availing the ‘Focus Product Scheme’.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
K Abdul Sattar Khan
Asst Director
Public Notice & Application Form
