DGFT extends VPB import price floor to 30 September
→VPB importers must price listed Chapter 48 shipments above ₹67,220 per MT CIF
Change
DGFT extended the ₹67,220 per MT CIF minimum import price on specified VPB imports until 30 September 2026.
Why it matters
Import clearance for listed VPB shipments now depends on the extended CIF price floor. Importers using old pricing checks risk clearance failure under the import-policy condition.
Implications
- → Import documentation teams must compare open VPB shipments against the ₹67,220 per MT CIF floor — underpriced filings can fail clearance.
- → Packaging procurement teams must update supplier quotes through 30 September — old landed-cost models can understate import cost.
