Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

**Executive Summary** This notification issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) on July 24, 2026, amends the import policy for Suspension grade PVC resin (S-PVC) under ITC (HS) code 39041020. Effective immediately, imports with a CIF value of USD 0.766 per kilogram or less are "Restricted" for a period of six months. The amendment aims to regulate low-cost imports while providing specific exemptions for export-focused entities. **Key Points / Main Content** **Revised Import Policy** * **Status Change:** The import policy for S-PVC (ITC HS 39041020) has been changed from "Free" to "Restricted." * **Price Threshold:** Imports remain "Free" for a period of six months from the date of notification only if the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value is greater than USD 0.766 per kilogram. * **Restriction Duration:** The restriction on imports valued at or below USD 0.766 per kilogram is set for an initial duration of six months starting July 24, 2026. **Exemptions and Conditions** * **Eligible Entities:** The Minimum Import Price (MIP) restriction does not apply to 100% Export Oriented Units (EOUs) and units located in Special Economic Zones (SEZs). * **Scheme Exemptions:** Imports conducted under the Advance Authorisation Scheme are exempt from the price-based restriction. * **Usage Restriction:** Exemptions are strictly conditional upon the requirement that the imported inputs are not sold into the Domestic Tariff Area (DTA). **Impact Analysis** **General Importers of S-PVC** **Impact** These stakeholders can no longer freely import S-PVC if the CIF value is USD 0.766 per kilogram or less, as these shipments are now categorized as "Restricted." **Action Required** Importers must ensure that their contract values exceed the USD 0.766/kg threshold to maintain "Free" import status or comply with restricted category licensing for lower-valued goods. **100% Export Oriented Units (EOUs) and SEZ Units** **Impact** These entities are unaffected by the Minimum Import Price restriction and can continue to import S-PVC regardless of the CIF value. **Action Required** Units must ensure that none of the imported S-PVC is diverted or sold into the Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) to maintain their exempt status. **Advance Authorisation Scheme Holders** **Impact** Holders of this scheme are permitted to import S-PVC without adhering to the new Minimum Import Price requirements. **Action Required** Recipients must strictly utilize the imported material for export production and ensure no sales are made within the DTA.
