Analysis: The petitioner, an exporter of agrochemicals, filed a petition against DGFT and Commissioner of Customs/Union of India, claiming entitlement to MEIS benefits for 43 shipping bills. MEIS is an incentive compensating exporters for higher costs. The petitioner faced difficulties uploading the shipping bills on the DGFT system for exports during 2015-16. Despite contacting ICEGATE, issues persisted, leading to the writ petition. The prayers included immediate uploading of correct data, extension of MEIS application time, and other necessary orders.
During the proceedings, it was revealed that 39 out of 43 shipping bills had been uploaded. An affidavit presented by the Commissioner of Customs stated that most issues had been resolved. The transmission of shipping bills from customs to DGFT is mostly automatic, with manual intervention in rare cases. Connectivity issues or IT glitches may cause delays. The affidavit confirmed re-transmission of 40 shipping bills, resolving the petitioner's main grievance. Only three shipping bills remained unresolved.
