DGFT:
The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has amended Standard Input Output Norms (SION) A-1303 with immediate effect. The amendment pertains to the export product “Di-Octyl Phthalate (DOP)” used as a PVC plasticizer. While the input quantity of Phthalic Anhydride remains unchanged at 0.400 kg per kg of DOP, the permissible import quantity of 2-Ethylhexanol (Octanol) has been revised from 0.700 kg to 0.680 kg, thereby reducing the import entitlement for this input.
