Engineering and automobile components
120 advance licences a year, eliminated
A 45-year-old engineering company.
Background
An established machine manufacturer with significant imported inputs, roughly 40% export and 60% domestic.
The problem
Every export order meant another Advance Authorisation — apply to DGFT, import only per SION, register at the port, then close the obligation within a time limit. 100 to 120 times a year.
What they did
Moved to MOOWR. Inputs come in under the scheme, finished machines and parts go out under it.
What happened
Duty remitted on raw materials used for exports and deferred on those sold domestically, no SION adherence, no per-transaction DGFT cycle, no export-obligation clock, and materially simpler supply chain planning.
Why it matters
It speaks to manufacturers already inside another scheme and quietly frustrated by it.
