--RBI tweaks export of goods, services norms
NEW DELHI – The Reserve Bank of India Thursday announced easing of regulations related to shipment and repatriation of goods and services exports. The tweaked norms came into effect on Nov. 13. The relief comes at a time when the country's top export destination, the US, has imposed steep tariffs on Indian goods.
The amended regulations will be called the foreign exchange management (export of goods and services) (second amendment) regulations, 2025. Under the amended norms, Indian exporters can now realise and repatriate the full export value of goods, software, services within 15 months, from nine months mandated earlier.
In case the export of goods and services has been made by units in special economic zones, status holder exporter, export oriented units and units in electronics hardware technology parks, software technology parks and bio-technology parks, the amount representing the full export value of goods or software can now be realised and repatriated to India within 15 months from nine months earlier.
Further, exporters can now ship goods within three years from the date of reciept of payments, compared with one year earlier, it said. An exporter can receive advance payment, where the export agreement provides for shipment of goods extending beyond the period of three years, compared with one year earlier, from the date of receipt of advance payment.
