Circular on Sampling & Testing of Chilli/Chilli Products/Turmeric Powder regarding benefit of reduced tariff for testing - dated 29th December, 2005

29th December, 2005

All Exporters (Chilli/Chilli Products/Turmeric Powder)
We have please to inform you that the benefit of reduced tariff for testing (Rs. 500/- for Aflatoxin and Rs. 750/- for sudan/ per sample) now applicable upto 2MT weight, has now been extended to consignments of weight upto 5 MT, with effect from 1.1.2006.

This decision has been taken to give relief to exporters of small lots of chilli, chilli products and turmeric powder weight upto 5 MT or less.
We hope you will take advantage of this and export your products aggressively.

With best wishes for a happy and prosperous New year 2006.
