<h1>Input-output norms require imported inputs to match specified proportions for manufacture and export compliance under foreign trade policy.</h1> Standard input-output norms under the Foreign Trade Policy require specific material-to-product ratios for steel stranded wire and oblige exporters to ensure imported inputs correspond to those ratios. The schedule specifies MS wire rod at 1.05 kg or steel wire of relevant grade and diameter at 1.02 kg per 1 kg of finished steel stranded wire. The regime requires determination of permissible input proportions and that applicants ensure imported goods are those actually used in the exported product.
