Reinforcing India’s commitment to supporting exporters and ensuring seamless trade flows, the Government has approved RELIEF (Resilience & Logistics Intervention for Export Facilitation) under the Export Promotion Mission to assist Indian exporters facing rising freight costs, insurance premia and operational uncertainties. The intervention provides targeted support across the export cycle, covering both shipments already impacted and upcoming consignments to the region. ECGC Ltd. has been designated as the nodal implementing agency to ensure timely verification, claim processing and disbursement. RELIEF offers enhanced protection through up to 100% additional risk coverage for insured consignments and up to 95% support for upcoming exports. It also includes a reimbursement mechanism of up to 50% for MSME exporters facing extraordinary logistics costs, subject to a ₹50 lakh ceiling. With an outlay of ₹497 crore and real-time monitoring, the intervention aims to sustain export flows, support MSMEs, prevent order disruptions and reinforce India’s resilience and competitiveness in global trade. #DoC_GoI #RELIEF #ExportSupport #ExportPromotionMission #MSMEs #TradeResilience
