There is absolutely no change and it is an addition to the procedure hitherto followed. The table attached hereto gives a clear picture for all.

Unfortunately, FAM (Federation of Association of Maharashtra) moved the matter with Mumbai-II Chief Commissioner, who in turn interpreted that all importers who were "dealers" shall get their Registrations amended. Nowhere the Notifications say so, nor the importers cannot be dealers or dealers cannot be importes. This is how interpretations lead to "time-pass" and all clients are now panicked.
