FROM FIRST CONVERSATION TO HANDOVER
We prepare, coordinate and track the agreed work. You stay involved in the decisions that matter.
Record the goods and requested result.
Identify missing records and inconsistent particulars.
Prepare the agreed filing and preserve its acknowledgement.
List queries and document-delivery actions still required.
Separate preparation, council examination and post-issuance actions when planning. Missing evidence and clarification requests can change the timeline; do not promise a shipment date on an assumed approval.
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU STAND
The written engagement confirms your deliverables and costs before work starts.
ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Read the exact deficiency, identify which record answers it and preserve the response reference. Agree whether preparing that response falls within the original engagement.
Do not use a council record as a substitute for checking the particular goods, destination and shipment requirements. Explain who requested the certificate and why.
CEPC's published renewal notice requires DGFT payment, not offline transfer, and states that failure to renew by 30 September 2026 leads to suspension. Check the current notice and your actual renewal status promptly; retain any prior payment reference.

Describe the carpets, merchant/manufacturer role, existing registrations and any pending query. Do not send identity documents or account credentials through a general enquiry.
THE DETAIL, WHEN YOU NEED IT
Carpet Export Promotion Council registration needs a clear account of your business and the goods you export. Plan the document handover as well as the online application: a certificate appearing in the portal is not the end of every registration responsibility.
Carpet businesses seeking first registration, resolving a council query or organising post-issuance follow-up. Describe the actual production or sourcing arrangement before choosing manufacturer or merchant status.
| Question | What matters | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Actual activity | Are you making carpets, sourcing them, or doing both? | Your chosen description should match the available evidence. |
| Correct application | CEPC's new-member instructions use the DGFT e-RCMC route. | Keep an existing draft or query reference to avoid duplicate submissions. |
| Entity records | Prepare records for the actual constitution of the business. | A company's checklist is not automatically suitable for a proprietor. |
| Follow-up owner | Who will handle documents and questions after online submission? | Agree that responsibility before treating the task as closed. |
