2. In order to ensure proper and intended use of above vehicles under EPCG Scheme, following course of action would be taken by EPCG authorization holder, Regional Authorities of DGFT and Custom Authorities in addition to existing conditions:
(a) Customs authorities will endorse in Bill of Entry while clearing such vehicles that such vehicles have to be registered as a vehicle for tourist purpose only. This would make purpose of import of vehicles absolutely clear and would also facilitate registration.
(b) In all past cases where Export Obligation Discharge Certificate (EODC) has not been obtained by 30-06-2008 and where vehicles were not registered as Tourist Vehicles, EPCG authorization holders will get them registered as Tourist Vehicles, by 31-08-2008. Regional Authorities of DGFT will monitor and ensure compliance.
3. This issues with the approval of DGFT.
