FTP - Export of Non-Basmati Rice - Allocation Stayed
THE Delhi High Court has stayed the allocation with a direction that, “no allotment shall be made till the next date of hearing”
This order was delivered in the Office of DGFT at 3.00 p.m. on 27th July, 2011, by which time the allocation of quantities for export of rice had already been made vide Trade Notice No. 13 of 27th July, 2011. Since the process of allotment was already completed by the time the interim order had been received, DGFT is seeking further directions in the matter.
In the meantime, operation and implementation of the allocation made in terms of Trade Notice No. 13 of 27.07.2011 is stayed in view of the order passed by the High Court and will be subject to outcome of the case.
This is how Government Departments should respect the orders of the higher Courts and not frustrate them.
