Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

Executive Summary: This document outlines amendments to the Cinematograph Certification Rules of 1983, specifically concerning fees for film examination and certification. It details revised fee structures for both celluloid and other film formats, based on length or duration, and includes provisions for alterations, duplicates, refunds, and additional charges under specific circumstances. The notification is effective as of January 27, 2017. Key Points / Main Content: Fee Structure for Film Examination: Celluloid Films: Examination fees are determined by film length in meters, with separate rates for predominantly educational films and other films (see table for specific amounts). Other Films: Examination fees are based on film duration in minutes, with different rates for predominantly educational films and other films (see table for specific amounts). Other Fee-Related Provisions: Alterations: Fees for certifying alterations are calculated based on the affected reels or cassettes, using the original certification rates. Excision alterations are charged at ₹150 per endorsement. Duplicate Certificates: A fee of ₹150 is required for a duplicate copy of the certificate. Withdrawal of Application: If an application is withdrawn before examination, 75% of the fee may be refunded. Failure to Present Runnable Print: Failure to present a runnable print at the scheduled examination incurs an additional fee of 25% of the examination fee. Excess Fee Payment: Overpaid fees due to mistake or miscalculation may be refunded if claimed within one year of certification. Information Request: A search fee of ₹35 per film title is required for information requests regarding certification. Impact Analysis: Applicants for Film Certification: Impact: The revised fee structure for film examination and certification directly affects the costs associated with submitting films for certification. The specific impact varies depending on the film's length/duration and type (educational vs. other). Action Required: Applicants need to be aware of the new fee structure and ensure that they pay the correct amount. They should also be aware of the conditions under which additional fees or refunds may apply. Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC): Impact: The CBFC is responsible for implementing and administering the revised fee structure. Action Required: The CBFC needs to update its systems and procedures to reflect the new fee structure and ensure that staff are trained on the revised rules. Ministry of Information and Broadcasting: Impact: The ministry is responsible for overseeing the implementation of the amended rules. Action Required: The ministry should monitor the impact of the revised fee structure on the film industry and make any necessary adjustments.
