Relief for tur importers if deals prior to Aug 5 registered.

Importers of tur, who had signed import contracts prior to a quantitative cap on overseas purchases on Aug 5, can avail relaxation on the import cap if they register those contracts with the government. Such contracts registered by the regional authorities after verifying that companies had entered into contracts prior to Aug 5. The government on Thursday had relaxed the norms by allowing consignments from Myanmar and other exporting countries for which advance payments were made prior to the restriction.
