    <title>Former Directors Penalized for Export Proceeds Non-Repatriation Under FEMA Despite Resignation from Company</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=86802</link>
    <description>The AT held that appellants could not escape liability for failing to realize and repatriate export proceeds totaling USD 3,93,094.63 related to seven GRs. Despite their resignation from M/s Rosecut Diamonds effective 01.09.2000, the statutory period for repatriation had expired between 02.05.2000 and 13.08.2000, prior to their departure. The tribunal rejected appellants&#039; claims of making reasonable efforts to contact buyers, noting lack of corroborating evidence of effective steps taken to recover foreign exchange dues. The AT found appellants had contravened Sections 7 and 8 of FEMA 1999 read with Regulations 8, 9 and 13 of FEMA Regulations 2000. The penalty was reduced to Rs. 10,00,000 each, with pre-deposits of Rs. 5,00,000 to be adjusted against the reduced amounts.</description>
