Clearance litigations

Clearance litigations cost time and money, including goods detention at the ports and demurrage charges, making it more expensive to operate and invest in India. For delayed clearances, importers seek release of shipments against a performance bond, and furnishing a bank guarantee for this purpose can be a costly option. Indian customs authorities have recently extended operations to 24 hours to ensure more timely clearances of imports.

Letter of Credit Disputes

Importers must include a copy of the letter of credit to record payment for imports. This document is normally verified by the issuing bank.

Not all consignments are inspected prior to clearance, and inspections may be waived for known importers. Under the current customs regime, an appointment with the clearing agent helps avoid delays. In general, documentation requests and requirements are extensive, and delays are frequent in India.

Trade Agreements Violation Disputes

India actively engages in regional and bilateral trade negotiations to diversify and expand its export markets while ensuring access to the raw materials, intermediates, and capital goods needed to stimulate domestic manufacturing. Presently, India shares preferential market access and economic cooperation through trade agreements with over 50 countries.
