Curbs extended on exports of sugar, eased for rice.
Oct 20, 2023

The government has extended restrictions on export of all varieties of sugar - raw, white, refined and organic - beyond October 31 owing to domestic production concerns on weak-monsoon worries. At present sugar is on the restricted list till October 31. However, the food ministry has been allowing the industry to export certain quantities depending upon availability.
 
However, these restrictions will not be applicable to sugar being exported to the European Union and the US under CXL and tariff rate quota (TRQ) concessions. A specified amount of sugar is exported to these regions at lower tariffs.
 
Non-basmati rice
 
India on Wednesday permitted the exports of 10,34,800 tonnes of non-basmati white rice to seven countries, including Nepal, Cameroon and Malaysia. The export is permitted through National Cooperative Exports Limited (NCEL), the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) said in a notification.
