I am a merchant trader. I got order from qatar. And sourcing from China. This comes under MTT trade. I got 100% T/T imward remittance. So I disposed the USD using MTT which Is earn marked. Due to pandamic my Chinese supplier can't give product. So the export leg completed transition important leg not started or completed transaction. In this scenario. I found indian supplier can source goods from Thailand and can ship to qatar.

The problem

1. The payments is earn marked and disposed by using export import invoice

2. We need to pay to indian supplier so need to change the purpose code

3. The goods not coming to India

4. We need to remove earn mark and use the fund to pay to indian supplier

5. How to regularise the fund in RBI . Against purpose code

Help this problem

Quick Summary

A merchant trader facing issues with an overseas order needs to pay an Indian supplier for goods sourced from Thailand and shipped to Qatar. The initial funds were marked for export, but the original Chinese supplier could not fulfil the order. The trader requires guidance on how to change the purpose code for the payment to the Indian supplier and regularise the funds with the RBI, as the goods will not be entering India.
