Under the Jan Vishwas Bill, 2026, India is simplifying its compliance framework by decriminalising minor offences and introducing a structured system of warnings and monetary penalties. These reforms reduce regulatory burden, enable exporters and MSMEs to address procedural gaps effectively, and promote a more transparent, efficient, and business-friendly environment. #JanVishwasBill2026 #DoC_GoI #EaseOfDoingBusiness #IndiaReforms @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India

Export obligation period is defined for six years from the date of issuance of the authorisation. This six-year period is divided into two blocks, the first block and the second block. The first block period is for the first four years from the date of issuance of the authorisation, whereas the following two years are known as the second block period. #DoC_GoI #EPCG #IndiaExports #TradeSimplified @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India

Under the Jan Vishwas framework, compliance under the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) Act, 1985 is being simplified. Failure to furnish returns or furnishing incorrect information will now attract a warning for the first instance, followed by a penalty starting from ₹10,000 for subsequent contraventions. This reform enables exporters to correct genuine errors while ensuring structured compliance. #JanVishwasBill2026 #DoC_GoI #EaseOfDoingBusiness #IndiaReforms @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India @APEDADOC

Compliance processes for marine exporters are being simplified under the Jan Vishwas reforms.

The Jan Vishwas reforms introduced a graded compliance framework under the Legal Metrology Act, 2009. Procedural lapses such as non-maintenance or non-production of records will now first receive an improvement notice, followed by penalties only for repeated non-compliance. This approach supports MSMEs by allowing correction of genuine errors while maintaining regulatory discipline. #JanVishwasBill2026 #DoC_GoI #EaseOfDoingBusiness #IndiaReforms @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India

As part of Jan Vishwas reforms, compliance under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 is being rationalised. Offences under Section 24 related to disclosure requirements for Ayurvedic, Siddha, and Unani drugs are proposed to shift from imprisonment and fine to monetary penalty only, with a minimum fine of ₹30,000. This reduces compliance burden while ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements. #JanVishwasBill2026 #DoC_GoI #EaseOfDoingBusiness #IndiaReforms @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India
