Exporters of two onion varieties — Bangalore Rose and Krishnapuram — can now get licences from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade's (DGFT) regional offices.
“To facilitate early issue of licences, it has been decided that intending exporters of Bangalore Rose and Krishnapuram onion may seek such licence from their respective regional authorities rather than coming to headquarter office of DGFT at Delhi,” the DGFT said.
Also, it asked the regional authorities to send a weekly report of the licences issued.
On February 10, an Empowered Group of Ministers led by Finance Minister, Mr Pranab Mukherjee, allowed exports of these varieties.
