Advance Authorization conditions for wheat flour exports require pre-import wheat sourcing and prohibit domestic procurement and third party exports. New Standard Input Output Norm (SION) permits export of whole wheat flour (atta) under Advance Authorization only with a pre-import condition for wheat and prohibits domestic procurement; AAs are limited to flour millers or exporters tied to millers, require Customs confirmation of Bills of Entry, mandate EDI port movement, impose a fixed export obligation period from consignment clearance with no extensions, enforce actual user restrictions and ban transfer or third party exports, and prescribe a penalty multiple of the CIF value for shortfall in export obligation.
