Government’s Stance On Sugar Exports Amidst Industry Demands

0

Indian Sugar Mills’ Association (ISMA) is optimistic about India’s sugar surplus and is projecting a net production of 320 lakh tonnes. The figure will surpass domestic consumption estimates and could be a positive sign for sugar exporters. The Indian sugar industry is dealing with different interests. While the sugar exporters want to export more to use up the extra sugar, the government wants to focus on blending ethanol into fuel.

Despite potential surplus sugar, the government is hesitant to allow export sugar in bulk. This is because of fear of depletion of its inventory crucial for sustaining the ethanol blending program. With a sharp eye on future seasons, the government aims to boost its sugar reserves to facilitate increased diversion of sugarcane for ethanol production.
