Export sector starts feeling pinch of COVID-19 outbreak: FIEO

19 Mar 2020 Evaluate

Federation of Indian Export Organsations (FIEO) has said that export sector has started feeling the pinch of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak with many requests from international buyers to hold back shipments till further instructions. It also warned that a significant number of such requests may ultimately lead to cancellation of orders.

As per the current trend, FIEO felt that the MSMEs particularly in employment intensive sectors such as carpets, handicrafts, apparels, footwear, gems and jewellery, and marine are likely to be worst affected mainly in the first quarter of 2020-2021. It said that banks may be asked to delay the declaring companies' accounts as non-performing asset (NPA) for one year as the lack of business coupled with fixed cost will make many accounts NPAs. Besides, it said the other suggestions include collateral free lending up to Rs 2 crore for MSME and continuation of all existing export promotion schemes till at least March 31, 2021.

The apex exporters' body further said the government may ease out the liquidity by immediately releasing all exports benefits to exporters including risky exporters for which a bond may be taken from risky exporters. It said Indian exporters may gain in some products if situation improves rapidly in the second quarter of the next fiscal. But, it said at this point of time, survival of many MSME exporting units looks challenging.
