Shri Manish Kumar highlighted that the scheme enhances the commercial viability of manufacturer importers by enabling better import scheduling and more efficient working capital management.
ABOUT THE EMI SCHEME
The EMI Scheme enables deferred payment of import duties, allowing eligible manufacturer importers to clear goods without upfront duty payment. Duties are to be paid on a monthly basis.
The scheme is inclusive and extends to MSMEs. It aligns with the Government's Make in India initiative and aims to strengthen domestic manufacturing by improving liquidity and expediting cargo clearance.
