I am directed to invite your kind attention to Boards Circular No. 35/2001-Cus, dated 15-6-2001 on the above subject, wherein, it has been stated, inter alia, that Joint review of the export performance of EOUs/ EPZ/SEZ units will help resolve the problems/ difficulties being faced by the units and at the same time, will enable us to take timely action against the defaulters. It has also been emphasized that our officers should participate in such meetings with upto date information about the units concerned along with brief details of any misuse noticed. In this connection, the Commissioners of Customs/Central Excise may kindly get in touch with the Development Commissioners in charge of Export Processing Zones (EPZs) or Special Economic Zones (SEZ) and obtain the statement/returns/reports, which are being sent regularly by them to the Ministry of Commerce in the formats prescribed in Appendix 16E of Handbook of Procedures, Vol. I. In case of STP/EHTP scheme, the information may be called for from the Director, STPI. These statement/returns/reports may also be utilised for tallying with your own information/records as regards discharge of export obligation/achievement of NFEP of such EOUs/units in EPZ/SEZ/STP/EHTP vis-à-vis as prescribed in EXIM Policy and timely action may be taken against the defaulting units for safeguarding the interests of revenue.
