The new provision prohibits imports of selected flax and jute products, identified by specific HS codes, from entering India via land ports along the India-Bangladesh border. These imports are now permitted only through the Nhava Sheva seaport. The restricted goods include flax tow and waste, raw or retted jute, single and multiple yarns of flax and jute, and woven fabrics of these materials. The restriction does not apply to Bangladesh exports that are transiting through India en-route to Nepal or Bhutan.
