Amendment in Import Policy and Import Policy Condition of Synthetic Knitted Fabrics Covered under Chapter 60 of the ITC (HS)
The Central Government has extended the Minimum Import Price (MIP) on Synthetic Knitted Fabrics under 13 specific ITC (HS) codes. Originally set to end on 31st December 2024, the MIP will now remain in effect from 1st January 2025 to 31st March 2025.
This extension is in line with the powers conferred by the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992, and is issued in partial modification of earlier notifications (No. 77/2023 and No. 33/2024-25).
The move aims to safeguard the domestic textile industry by regulating the import of synthetic knitted fabrics during this period.
