The Indian Government yesterday (20 July) banned exports of (non-basmati) white rice with immediate effect as part of its efforts to control rising foodgrain prices.
The Directorate-General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) issued a notification that non-basmati white (raw) rice (semi-milled or wholly milled rice, whether or not polished or glazed has been shifted to the “prohibited” list.
The ban could reduce rice exports from India by at least 40% of the over 17 million tonnes (MT) of non-basmati rice shipments in the last two fiscal years.
The Government has said it will permit shipments to countries that approach it for meeting their food security needs. This is in line with its decision allowing exports of fully broken rice to African nations such as Senegal, Gambia and Djibouti.
Consignments handed over to Customs before the notice and registered in the Department’s system or have entered the custom station and registered with verifiable date and stamping will be allowed until August 31.
