Import-policy amendments requiring an importer warehousing newsprint to be an RNI-registered Actual User operate prospectively from 3 June 2016 and do not invalidate earlier imports. Where the applicable customs exemption contains no RNI-registration or Actual User requirement, non-registration alone does not defeat the exemption.
