Uncleared Cargo Sales System

The Sales branch mainly deals with the auction of the import or export cargo lying uncleared/unclaimed in the Port premises. Such cargo is sold by e-auction under the provisions of Section 61 & 62 of the Major Port Trust Act 1963. This forms an important part of the Port operations. To keep track of this process this application is developed in-house.

The details of uncleared/unclaimed cargo is merged as un cleared cargo (u/c) list into sales system from Cargo Module of Integrated Port Operation System (IPOS), for each and every uncleared cargo line a unique lot no. is given, notices are generated and sent to respective agent/parties for information, gazetting, advertising and inventories are printed and u/c details are sent to custom for Bill of Entry formalities. The lots with Bill of .Entry formalities over are put into final auction list. The delivery orders are given to bidders to whom lots are sold in the auction and then bills are generated as per Docks Scale Of Rates. Lots which are not sold are again put into auction sale as per cycle by the program section.
