    TRAI directs use of 1601-series for service, transactional calls by utilities, logistics cos
    Show AI Summary
    Trusted service-call numbering requires verified utilities and logistics entities to use dedicated numbers exclusively for transactional and service communications.
    The 1601-series is introduced for verified utilities, courier and logistics entities making service and transactional voice calls. Numbers must be allocated directly to eligible entities, not intermediaries or aggregators, following verification by telecom service providers and an undertaking of exclusive use.

      In the wake of the recent fall in the international prices of commodities and with a view to safeguard the interests of domestic producers, Government have carried out certain changes in the customs duty rates. The details of these changes are as under:

      (i) Withdrawal of the full exemption from customs duty granted earlier on specified iron and steel items such as Pig iron, spiegeleisen, semi-finished products, flat products and long products. Consequently, they will be subject to a basic customs duty of 5% ad valorem.

      (ii) Withdrawal of full exemption from customs duty granted earlier on crude soyabean. Consequently, crude soyabean oil will be subject to a basic customs duty of 20% ad valorem. There is no change in the import duty on refined soyabean oil.

      These changes come into effect on the 18th of November, 2008. Notification No.122/2008-Customs dated 18.11.2008 has been issued in this regard.
