CII backs RoDTEP extension, asks for five-year horizon
In short
CII welcomed the RoDTEP extension and asked for a five-year policy horizon for exporters. The report says this comes as India’s merchandise exports grew strongly in April to August, and the government is aiming for $1 trillion in exports this fiscal year.
That could help exporters plan better. But the report does not say how long the extension will last or whether any other export rules will change.
What the reporting says

The report says the move comes as India’s merchandise exports showed strong growth during April-August, while the government targets $1 trillion in exports this fiscal year. The immediate effect appears supportive for exporters, but the reporting does not say how long the extension lasts.
Why it matters
CII’s response focused on the RoDTEP extension and the need for longer policy visibility for exporters.
