The total extended export obligation period shall not exceed two years from the expiry of the original export obligation period. Exports made on or after the date of receipt of application for EO extension shall only qualify for discharge of EO fulfillment under the Scheme However extension in EO period beyond the two years period available above, may be considered, for an extension upto 3 years with 50% enhanced EO and upto 5 years with 100% enhanced EO in addition to any other provision subject to such undertaking by the licensee.
