Pre-authenticated CT-3 issuance extended to textile and chemical EOUs, subject to compliance-based annual permission and bond coverage requirement. EOUs in textile and chemical sectors may receive one-time yearly permission from the jurisdictional Assistant/Deputy Commissioner to be issued pre-authenticated CT-3 form booklets if they have an unblemished track record-including achievement of Net Foreign Exchange/export obligations and no serious show cause notices or confirmed demands in the preceding three years-and consignments under such certificates must be covered by the B-17 bond; misuse may lead to withdrawal of the facility and earlier circulars are modified accordingly.
