Quota allocation for cotton exports on pro rata basis with documentary proof required and penalties for non performance. Registration of export contracts for raw cotton requires e mail applications in the prescribed format; allocations are made pro rata with a per IEC ceiling and minimum floor, and prior non performance against EARCs reduces pro rata entitlement. Post allocation applicants must submit the export contract plus either a confirmed irrevocable Letter of Credit or bank FIRC evidencing required advance payment, IEC copy, and a signed declaration within a specified period, failing which they are declared ineligible and their allocation is reallocated. Non export within the stipulated time invites debarment and penal action under Section 11(2) of the FT(D&R) Act.
