Import of Rough Marble Blocks and Parliament Elections
Representations have been received from trade and industry, who have been granted licences for import of rough marble blocks/slabs for the year 2008-09 stating that on account of Parliamentary elections, the new Policy for import of rough marble blocks/slabs for the year 2009-10 is likely to be delayed. This delay is likely to cause disruption in their business. They have further requested that they may be allowed to import a quantity equivalent to 25% of the licences granted to them for the year 2008-09, so that their business needs of the first three months of the next financial year are met.
The gracious government has agreed. However the utilization of the additional quantity and actual import may only be made after 1.4.2009. An endorsement to this effect shall be made on the licence by the R.A. concerned.
