The scheme allows import of capital goods for pre production, production and post production at 5% Customs duty subject to an export obligation equivalent to 8 times of duty saved on capital goods imported under EPCG scheme to be fulfilled over a period of 8 years reckoned from the date of issuance of licence.
However, in respect of EPCG licences with a CIF value of Rs.100 crore or more, the same export obligation shall be required to be fulfilled over a period of 12 years. The capital goods shall include spares, jigs, fixtures, dies and moulds.
