Rohan Foods Pvt Ltd employs staff in two establishments in Nagpur and Indore, and also wants to import raw spices from abroad for its production. Which combination of registrations is most appropriate for the import activity and for its shops and establishments obligations?

Rohan Foods needs an Importer-Exporter Code from DGFT for importing spices and separate registrations under each State's shops and establishments law for its Nagpur and Indore establishments. Each covers a distinct regulatory area, so neither can replace the other.

  1. AImporter-Exporter Code for the import, and registration under the relevant State shops and establishments law for each locationCorrect
  2. BImporter-Exporter Code only, as it covers the State registrations of both locations
  3. CState shops registration only, as it permits imports
  4. DNo registration is required for either activity

Explanation

Import of goods needs an Importer-Exporter Code issued by the DGFT, whereas workplace registration falls under the respective State's shops and establishments law, which differs by State. One does not substitute for the other, and the two locations being in different States means separate State registrations apply.
