How To Learn FOREIGN TRADE Without Losing Your Mind.


Foreign trade is recognized as the most significant determinants of economic development of a country, all over the world.

For providing, regulating and creating necessary environment or its orderly growth, several Acts have been put in place. 

The foreign trade of a country consists of inward and outward movement of goods and services, which results into outflow and inflow of foreign exchange. 

The foreign trade of India is governed by the Foreign Trade (Development & Regulation) Act, 1992 and the rules and orders issued there under. 

Payments for import and export transactions are governed by Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999. Customs Act, 1962 governs the physical movement of goods and services through various modes of transportation. 

To make India a quality producer and exporter of goods and services, apart from projecting such image, an important Act—Exports (Quality control & inspection) Act, 1963 has been in vogue. 

Today’s international trade is not only highly competitive but also dynamic. 


Necessary responsive framework to make exports compete globally, is essential. 

In order to harness these gains from trade, the transaction costs, in turn dependent on the framework support, involved need to be low for trading within the country and for international trade.

International trade is a vital part of development strategy and it can be an effective instrument of economic growth, employment generation and poverty alleviation. 


Market conditions change, almost daily, requiring quick response and more importantly, anticipation of the future requirements is the need of the hour. 

To gear with the changing requirements, it is essential that the framework has to remain in pace and change in anticipation, accordingly, and then only international trade can pick up the speed envisaged.

QUOTAS? Is Essential For Your Success. Read This To Find Out Why

Quotas are a quantity control on imported goods.  Generally, they are specific provisions limiting the amount of foreign products imported in order to protect local firms and to conserve foreign currency.  Quotas can be used for export control as well. An export quota is sometimes required by national planning to preserve scarce resources.  From a policy standpoint, a quota is not as desirable as a tariff since a quota generates no revenues for a country.  Two kinds of voluntary quotas can be legally distinguished: VER (voluntary export restraint) and OMA (orderly marketing agreement).  Whereas an OMA involves a negotiation between two governments to specify export management rules, the monitoring of trade volumes, and consultation rights, a VER is a direct agreement between an importing nation's government and a foreign exporting industry (i.e., a quota with industry participation).  Both enable the importing country to circumvent the GAT...

Brass: Protecting the Viability of the Scrap Stream

Free-machining brasses  Brass is a metal alloy made of copper and zinc. The presence of other elements in brass such as lead is often required to improve machinability. The superior machinability of brass is ideal for producing parts that are used in a variety of applications including valves, fittings and electrical components. The most commonly used, free-machining brass is UNS alloy C36000. In some applications such as potable water systems, federal and state regulations restrict the use of lead. This may require the specification of low or lead-free brasses. Some lead-free brasses rely on elements other than lead to improve machinability and other properties such as strength, hardness and corrosion resistance. The importance of scrap  The entire economy of the brass industry is dependent on the economic recycling of surplus material, or scrap. Brass for extrusion and hot forging is normally made from a basic melt of scrap of similar composition adjuste...
