The Presidents/ CEOs,
All Banks

Dear Sir / Madam,

Relaxations to Exporters of Carpets under Export Finance Scheme (EFS) for FY 2016-17

           In view of the particular circumstances impacting exporters of carpets in meeting their required export performance, the following relief is being provided to carpets exporters under EFS for FY 2016-17:

  1. Relaxation under EFS Part-I (Pre-shipment)

    1. 90 days extension in shipment period has been allowed for those Part-I loans, in which shipment was falling due in FY 2016-17 (July-June basis).

    2. In case of non-shipment, the fine already charged shall be retained by SBP BSC offices till submission of Annexure-F within extended period. However, in loan cases where shipment was falling due during FY 2016-17 and delayed shipment fine had been charged, upon submission of Annexure-F, the same shall be refunded to the extent of delay by maximum 90 days.

  2. Relaxation under EFS Part-II

    1. An additional period of 3 months has been allowed to those carpet exporters who have shortfall in required performance in the monitoring year 2016-17. Accordingly, eligible entries showing shipments and export proceeds realization up to September 30, 2017 are allowed to be included in the export performance of FY 2016-17. This export performance of extended period will also be considered for entitlement of limit for FY 2017-18. However, it is expected that exporters will avail realistic limits from banks in line with their potential to perform in order to avoid short performance fine in FY 2017-18.

    2. Exporters requiring this relaxation will have to submit additional EF-1 and EE-1 statements through their banks to respective SBP BSC office latest by December 31, 2017, duly verified by the concerned Foreign Exchange Operations Department/Division (FEOD).

    3. Exporters who avail above benefit of extension in performance period shall not be allowed to avail benefit of incentives based rebate of mark up (under SBP SMEFD Circular No. 6 of 2009) for the year 2016-17.

2.       Other instructions on the subject shall remain unchanged


Yours sincerely,

Sd/-
