(ii) If an applicant has been In existence for more than 3 years, the exports in each of the past 3 years (even if for some years, it may be zero) are aggregated and the aggregate export is divided by 3.
(iii) if an applicant has been in existence for less than 3 years, the denominator in the above calculation will be the number of year and not 3. The following table illustrates the fixation of average Export Obligation (in case a firm/company has applied for EPCG authorizations in the vear 2017-18).
