Domestic dues from export houses are ordinary Indian claims: notice, Samadhaan for Udyam units, Section 138 and suits. Overseas dues need contract terms, ECGC cover where taken, and recovery in the buyer’s country; FundRaksha advises on which route is realistic before you spend on it.
Exporters and export houses in Jalandhar
Jalandhar’s sports-goods, hand-tool and pipe-fitting makers supply dealers and exporters nationwide, usually small manufacturers selling on 90-day credit. The MSME Act’s 45-day limit and interest apply to most of them, and a legal notice with the delivery documents is the first step that gets dealers paying.
Domestic suppliers to export houses wait on the exporter’s own realisation; exporters themselves face overseas buyers paying late or disputing quality.
Proof to collect
Typically POs and job-work orders, delivery challans, inspection and shipment records, invoices, and for overseas dues the contract, shipping documents and payment terms (LC, DA, DP or open account).
- Avoid: shipping before the LC or advance is in place
- Avoid: no written job-work agreement with export houses
- Avoid: letting overseas dues cross RBI realisation deadlines without an extension
