The Reserve Bank of India on 12th April 2021 has extended the Interest Equalization Scheme for pre and post shipment Rupee export credit, with same scope and coverage, for three more months i.e., upto June 30, 2021. The extension takes effect from April 01, 2021 and ends on June 30, 2021 covering a period of three months.
The interest equalisation scheme was announced for a period of five years in the Foreign Trade Policy (2015-20). Its validity was extended by a year last fiscal as the government deferred the announcement of a new five-year Foreign Trade Policy due to the pandemic.
