The most common error on this tariff line is failing to account for the staggered enforcement dates: large enterprises have been in scope from 15 February 2024, small enterprises from 15 May 2024, and micro enterprises from 15 August 2024. An importer sourcing from a foreign manufacturer that qualifies as a micro or small enterprise under India's MSMED Act thresholds may incorrectly assume the QCO exemption extends to the import transaction itself — it does not. The exemption under S.O. 777(E) runs to Indian domestic manufacturers registered on the Udyam Portal, not to foreign suppliers, and the CM/L obligation falls on the manufacturing entity, not the importer.
