Project exports and service exports

I have a query on export of goods and services under FEMA.

Where an export of goods or services is proposed to be made on deferred payment terms or in execution of a turnkey project or a civil construction contract, the exporter shall before entering into any such export arrangement, submit the proposal for prior approval of the 'approving authority', which shall conisder the proposal in accordance with the guidelines issued by RBI.

Here the approving authority means EXIM bank or AD bank.

My question is what is meant by the term deferred payment basis used here. Can you give an example please.

Regards

In context of the paragraph above, defered payment means payment defered beyond 180 days from the date of export. As per RBI guidelines any export of goods or services have to be realised within 180 days. Since project exports take a longer time for execution and realisation, the requirement as stated by you arise.

Thanks Ajit  for your response.

Could you please quote the FEMA regulation or RBI circular or notification where it is explicitly stated.

And just to correct you, export proceeds are to be realised within 9 months from date of export. Not 180 days.This is pursuant to FEMA (Export of Goods & Services) Regulation.
