The Association of Trade and Industrial Undertakings (#ATIU) recently hosted an interactive session with senior officials from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (#DGFT) to discuss the government's #exportpolicies and address industry concerns. ATIU President presented several export-related issues to Utpal Acharya. During the meeting, Sharma emphasised the importance of encouraging young #entrepreneurs to engage in export activities to boost the country's #economicgrowth. In response, Acharya announced plans for short-term courses led by DGFT staff to #educate aspiring #exporters on establishing export units, navigating #foreignpolicy, and identifying product export potential. They stressed the need for #government intervention to close the payment gap and address the shortage of #containers at #ports, which has led to inventory build-up. The association also raised concerns about delays in the release of #customsdrawbacks, which have placed financial strain on #MSMEs due to delayed dispatches and increased interest costs. Logistical challenges for #Punjab-based exporters due to their distance from major ports were also discussed.
