Issuance of SHIS scrip

[Pritesh Shah]

Dear Expert,

The office of the Joint Director General of Foreign Trade has been granted us Star Export house status on 16.07.2012, I have some doubt in below matter.

• Can we avail SHIS scrip for the year 2009-10 / 2010-11 with value cut (as per para 3.10.3 of  HBPv1 last date of application is 31.03.2011 / 31.03.2012) ?
• Application has to be filed port-wise ?

Thanking you
