Government has operationalized the Inventory-based Cross-border E-Commerce Export Framework under the Foreign Trade Policy 2023. The framework provides a comprehensive policy and procedural architecture for facilitating inventory-based cross-border e-commerce exports of goods manufactured or produced in India. It incorporates several safeguards to ensure that the benefits of e-commerce exports accrue to Indian manufacturers and MSMEs while maintaining regulatory oversight.
The Framework also enables export-only inventory operations through registered exporters-on-record. It also provides for timely payments to Indian sellers within the prescribed timeline, irrespective of the receipt of payment from overseas buyers. Ministry of Commerce and Industry said that the framework is expected to facilitate greater participation of Indian manufacturers, traders and MSMEs in global e-commerce supply chains by providing access to organized fulfillment networks while ensuring transparency, timely payments, effective pass-through of export benefits and robust regulatory oversight.
