The Department of Commerce on Friday announced the extension of timelines under Component II of RELIEF - Resilience & Logistics Intervention for Export Facilitation as a part of the government’s initiative to protect exporters against risks arising from political and economic turbulence in the Middle East under the Export Promotion Mission (EPM).
RELIEF was launched on March 19, 2026, as a measure dedicated to protect Indian exporters affected by extraordinary freight escalation, heightened insurance premiums and war-related export risks arising from disruptions in the Gulf and wider West Asia maritime corridor.
