The Centre on Friday directed manufacturers of fertilisers to withhold any proposed hike in prices for nutrients, including complex fertilisers. It also kept the nutrient-based subsidy scheme unchanged for potassic and phosphatic fertilisers for 2021-22, till further orders.
Mansukh Mandaviya, Union Minister of State for Chemical and Fertilisers, announced the Centre’s decision stating that the companies have been asked to charge old rates for decontrolled fertilisers.
