Govt limits sugar stock limit to 1,000 quintals ahead of festive season

 The Centre will implement new stock limits for sugar dealers starting October 15 until November 30. The inventory cap has been set at 1,000 quintals with a 15-day holding period. This decision follows a notable decrease in ex-mill sugar prices and aims to control hoarding during the festive season. Kolkata and Assam have been given slightly higher stock limits due to distribution needs. The Centre will implement new stock limits for sugar dealers starting October 15 until November 30.
