ICD,
Faridabad is situated at Sector 59,
adjacent to Railway Line, Ballabgarh,
Faridabad. It is spread over an area of 13
acres. Public Bonded warehouse is also
situated within the boundaries of ICD,
Faridabad.
The port started
functioning in June 1997 for
de-stuffing/stuffing of import and export
cargo and clearance thereof. The Public
Bonded Warehouse provides facility of
warehousing the goods under Section 59/49
of Customs Act,1962.
The port was under the
administrative control of Commissioner,
Central Excise, Delhi- II earlier.
However, w.e.f. 01.02.1999 it has been
placed under the control of Commissioner
of Customs, ICDs, Tughlakabad, New Delhi
vide Public Notice No. 4/99 Dated
29.01.1999. Customs staff at this port is
posted on cost recovery basis.
M/s Associated Container
Terminals Ltd., New Delhi, are the
custodian of the cargo. It is a joint
venture with a Malaysian company M/s
Kansortium Logistics Ltd. which is holding
40% of the equity capital while the rest
of the equity is being held by Sh
R.R.Joshi who is also the Chairman of ACTL
At present, all import
containers meant for ICD, Faridabad are
brought from gateway ports (Mumbai and
Nhava-Sheva) to ICD, Tughlakabad via rail
transport under the custody of CONCOR.
CONCOR and ACTL are submitting carrier
bonds for the movements of these
containers. For movement between ICD,
Tughlakabad and ICD, Faridabad M/s ACTL
submits carrier bond to Customs at ICD,
Tughlakabad. The same procedure applies to
the export containers as well.
Additional cost of
transportation between ICD, Tughlakabad
and ICD, Faridabad has been the main
disadvantage hindering the growth of this
port. However, expeditious clearance by
customs has gone a long way in mitigating
this problem. This is evident from the
substantial increase in the work load as
well as increase in revenue collection at
this port.
Apart from processing of
export shipping bills, import bills of
entry, processing and sanction of Drawback
claims, verification and registration of
DEPB licenses, assessment of ex-bond Bills
of Entry for goods warehoused at two
public bonded warehouses (CWC, Faridabad
and this port) is also done by Customs
Office at ICD, Faridabad..
