Tridge summary

All India Sugar Trade Association asked the government to change sugar export quota rules. AISTA wants quotas only for mills that export directly. The current system lets some mills sell quotas, hindering exports. AISTA also criticised the ethanol export duty. They say it hurts mills without distilleries and farmer payments. India exported 6.44 lakh tonnes of sugar this year.
