Comm min working on criteria for laptop, computer importers to provide licences in smooth ways: Official

New Delhi: The commerce ministry’s arm DGFT is working on formulating criteria to provide licences in a smooth way to importers of laptops and computers, an official said. As the government has decided to impose import curbs on these electronic devices, importers would have to seek a license from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) from November 1.

“We are working on the licensing issues. The aim is to make it smooth to get a license for imports,” the official said.
