Export Credit Schemes Sample Clauses

Export Credit Schemes. Export credit on preferential terms has been a long-standing export incentive programme in India. The EC has not imposed countervailing duties against export credit schemes, but the US and Canada have been doing so in every CVD determination. In some of the cases in the US, the GOI and exporters have been arguing that in calculating the benefit resulting from this scheme the cost-to-government approach must be adopted. However, it is clear from the earlier analysis in this note that there is no legal basis for such an argument. It is clear from Article 14 of the ASCM that the use of the benefit-to-recipient approach is valid. A question could be raised as to whether it would be appropriate for India to seek a safe haven for the use of export credit concessions by the developing countries on the lines of what has been provided for the OECD Arrangement on Official Export Credit in item (k) of the Illustrative List. In this connection, it is necessary to bear in mind that the proviso 50 GATT, BISD 18S/97. to item (k) provides a safe haven only from remedies under Article 4 of the ASCM, which can be invoked only for prohibited subsidies. As far as India is concerned the prohibition on export subsidies does not apply to it at all because of the benefit given to low income countries. To a large extent, we already have the benefit of safe haven for export credit subsidies. Seeking agreement on export credit concessions by developing countries being made non-actionable for all purposes including action under Part V for imposition of countervailing duty will be a tall order, considering that such a benefit has not been given in the ASCM to developing or developed countries for an export subsidy practice or for any specific subsidy. Taking an initiative in the matter becomes all the more incongruous in the situation in which the RBI has already commenced the process of de-regulation of interest rates for pre and post shipment rupee loans. The assessment is that this process will soon be extended to foreign currency denominated loans also. We recommend that the government should not make any proposal for clarification or improvement of the ASCM in respect of export credit.
