New record in exports
Earlier, BusinessLine had reported that after setting a new record in exports, sugar companies are now looking up to the government for the release of ₹5,600 crore, the promised export subsidy as of August-end.
The dues are in addition to the ₹2,500 crore in receivables from the government towards buffer stock and interest subvention schemes.
Large sugar companies such as Balrampur Chini Mills and Dalmia Bharat Sugar and Industries made the most of the surge in overseas demand on the back of lower production in Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. In fact, Indonesia extended its preferential lower import duty to India and Australia to make up for its more inadequate supply from Thailand.
