The proposals have already been sent to the Authority, which would benefit small exporters, micro exporters and also those having an export turnover of Rs 20 crore to Rs 100 crore, N Shankar, Chairman-cum-Managing Director, Export Credit Guarantee Corporation (ECGC), told reporters on the sidelines of a function here.
