Regulation 3(2) of the FEMA (Manner of Receipt and Payment) Regulations requires export receipt in the currency appropriate to the final destination as declared by the exporter, and does not envisage payment by a third party; therefore receipts from third parties for exports made before 08.11.2013 contravened Reg.3(2) - consequence: contravention established.

Directors who signed commercial invoices are liable under Section 42(1) - consequence: company penalty reduced to Rs.15,00,000 and two individual penalties of Rs.3,00,000 each upheld; pre-deposits to be adjusted. - AT
