The paragraphs 2.79A and 2.79B of the Handbook of Procedures (HBP) of the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2015-20 are substituted to read as under:4 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [PART I—SEC. 1 “2.79 A Issue of export authorization for "Stock and Sale" of SCOMET items Application for grant of authorization for bulk export of SCOMET items (excluding Category 0, Category 3A4001, Category 6 and transfer of technology under any category) from an Indian exporter to an entity abroad (hereinafter referred to as ‘stockist’) for subsequent transfer to the ultimate end users shall be considered by IMWG, on the following conditions: Applicability and scope of policy a. ‘Stockist’ refers to the entity abroad to whom the SCOMET items are originally exported by Indian principal/wholly owned subsidiary. The Stockist entity should be a subsidiary/principal company abroad of the Indian exporter; b. Export shall be permitted only from the principal company/the wholly owned subsidiary in India (exporter) to their subsidiaries/principal company abroad (stockist) on the basis of an End Use declaration from the stockist, through the specified End User Certificate (EUC) for 'stock & sale' purpose; Application for export to stockist abroad and transfer to end users in specific countries c.

No authorization would be required for transfer from the stockist to the ultimate end user(s) within the country of the stockist and for re-export to end users in such approved countries ; f. Re-export to such approved countries would be subject to the export control regulations of the country of the stockist; g. Country would denote an independent sovereign entity which is a distinct national entity in political geography.

IMWG shall consider export authorizations for allowing such re-export/re-transfer based on end use/end user verification; Repeat Order cases k. Applications for re-export/re-transfer of SCOMET items from the stockist entity to the end-users for repeat orders shall be considered by IMWG in accordance with paragraph 2.79 of HBP; Annual reporting on inventory of the stockist and transfers/re-exports l. The Indian exporter (Stock & Sale Authorization holder) shall submit a statement of exports made from India to the stockist, transfers made by the stockist to the final end-users and inventory with the stockist, as on 31st December of each calendar year, by 31st January of the following year. A failure to do so may entail imposition of penalty and/or cancellation of authorization under the stock and sale policy; m. The items exported to the stockist entity under the stock and sale authorization should be transferred to the final end-user(s) within the validity period of the authorization as in paragraph 2.16 of HBP; n. The authorization may be revalidated as per the procedure mentioned in paragraph 2.80 of HBP; 2.79 B Issue of export authorisation for spare parts of SCOMET items under stock and sale At the request of the applicant, export permission for spare parts covered under SCOMET may be considered by IMWG along with the application for the main item/ equipment which shall be considered on the same conditions, as applicable for the main item/component. Accordingly, the applicant seeking permission for export of spare parts, under stock and sales arrangement, may indicate the requirement of spare parts in the application for main item/equipment after judicious and reasonable assessment thereof, and provide the justification of the same.
