Towns of Export Excellence
Towns of Export Excellence
3.3
A number of towns in specific geographical locations have emerged as dynamic industrial clusters contributing handsomely to Indias exports. It is necessary to grant recognition to these industrial clusters with a view to maximizing their potential and enabling them to move higher in the value chain and tap new markets.
Selected towns producing goods of Rs. 1000 crore or more will be notified as Towns of Exports Excellence on the basis of potential for growth in exports. However for the Towns of Export Excellence in the Handloom, Handicraft, Agriculture and Fisheries sector, the threshold limit would be Rs 250 crores.
Common service providers in these areas shall be entitled for the facility of the EPCG scheme.
The recognised associations of units will be able to access the funds under the Market Access Initiative scheme for creating focused technological services.
Further such areas will receive priority for assistance for rectifying identified critical infrastructure gaps from the ASIDE scheme.
The notified towns of export excellence are listed in Appendix 41.
