India's DGFT extends VPB import price floor to 30 September
→VPB importers must price listed Chapter 48 shipments above ₹67,220 per MT CIF
Change
India's DGFT extended the ₹67,220 per MT CIF minimum import price on specified virgin multi-layer paper board 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 or landed-cost checks risk shipment clearance failure under the import-policy condition.
Implications
- → Import documentation teams must compare open VPB shipments against the ₹67,220 per MT CIF floor before clearance filings.
- → Packaging procurement teams must update supplier quotes and landed-cost models for listed Chapter 48 imports through 30 September 2026.
