Central Government Imposes Limitations On Sugar Exports
Central government put constraints on sugar exports of up to 100 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) from June 1 to October 31. This is to ensure domestic supply and price stability throughout the 2021-22 sugar season (October-September). Exports will be permitted only with the specific consent of the Directorate of Sugar under the Department of Food and Public Distribution. This year's sugar season has seen the largest sugar export in history.
