Nishant: On 09 February 2015 Hello, Thanks for this details. But i want to know about particular case, like mine.I own a Proprietorship firm for diamond exports registered in Surat,Gujarat,India. I don't have CST/TST TIN No., as there is no sales tax for the purchase/sell of the diamond. I also have exported 5 times this year. What is the procedure to get "Exemption Certificate"? Vivek : On 14 February 2015 I request you to please guide me on the following: 1) For opening of LC whether the bank (Issuing) bids for foreign currency on our behalf with RBI and on successful bidding we get the LC opened. 2) Is the above known as pre - negotiation period. ie from the time LC is opened(confirmed) till the documents are negotiated. 3) On opening of LC - and shipment by exporter. The exporter forwards the documents to his bank (Advising). 4) As per my knowledge the LC involves the following:- i) At sight - when documents are received by the advising bank it will forward to the Issuing bank and the Issuing bank after checking the docs will release payment. This enters the post negotiation period. The amount will be then debited to the importers account as per the terms between importer and bank. Please mention the rate at which this liquidation takes place. ii) Deferred Payment: Please explain this in detail if possible. iii) Acceptance: Please explain this also. I am of the opinion in the case of acceptance Bill of collection is compulsorily required which is to be accepted by the issuing bank. In other cases also drafts can be used. Pls mention in such cases who is the drawer drawee and payee and why? iv) Negotiation:- The documents are negotiated by the advising bank to negotiating bank and the negotiating bank pays the advising bank at discount. The negotiating bank then forwards the documents to Issuing bank and collects the payment. Please let me know whether this is done so that the time taken by the issuing bank / confirming bank to scrutinize the documents is reduced. Please provide details on the above if possible and also let me know if the above is correct. Please also let me know the favourable terms & conditions we have to enter with our banks in case we are importers(Trading activity). Like the period of credit. Exposure Limit - Foreign & Local currency. Interest rates pre & post neg. Refinancing terms.
