Govt to take call on increasing sugar export quota next month after assessing demand-supply: Food Secretary.
Jan 20, 2023
The government will take a decision next month on increasing the sugar export quota from current 60 lakh tonnes after assessing the domestic production and internal demand, Food Secretary Sanjeev Chopra said on Thursday. The food ministry has allowed 60 lakh tonnes of sugar exports for the current 2022-23 marketing year (October-September). India exported around 110 lakh tonnes of sugar -- an all-time high -- in the previous year.
In the current marketing year so far, the mills have dispatched 30 lakh tonnes of sugar for exports and out of that 18 lakh tonnes have already been shipped. The food ministry said the entire 60 lakh tonnes will get exported by May.
Asked about increasing the exports quota, Chopra told reporters: 'We are open to revisiting the export quota. Depending on the domestic production and internal requirement, we will take a fresh call in the next month or so.'
The secretary said that there are divergent views on production estimates among different sugar associations for the current 2022-23 marketing year and a clear picture would emerge by the end of this month or early next month.
Subodh Singh, Additional Secretary in the food department, said: 'We will have a meeting with cane commissioners of all the sugar-producing states next month. We will reassess production estimates and then we will decide how much sugar can be reasonably exported.'
He said the production would not be lower than 340-345 lakh tonnes. 'So we will have the potential of some additional quantity of exports,' Singh said.
Earlier this week, Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) said that sugar mills have entered into contracts to export 55 lakh tonnes of sweetener so far in the current marketing year ending September.
Sugar production till January 15, 2023, in the current marketing year is 156.8 lakh tonnes as against 150.8 lakh tonnes in the corresponding period of the previous year.
