Govt. caps sugar stock limit for dealers to 1,000 quintals ahead of festive season
The Indian government has limited the amount of sugar dealers can hold to 1,000 quintals as the festive season approaches. The Food Ministry said the change aims to prevent excess stock in the distribution chain and keep the flow from mills to consumers steady. This move is intended to avoid shortages and price volatility. The policy is expected to streamline distribution and reduce market disruptions.
