Government has Granted Permission for the Export of 2,000 Metric Tons of White Onions From three Ports

The Indian government has granted permission for the export of up to 2,000 metric tons of white onions from three specified ports on Thursday. This step is part of easing restrictions on onion exports, which were imposed last December to increase domestic availability and stabilize prices.

According to a notification by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), exporters will need to obtain a certificate from the Gujarat government Horticulture Commissioner certifying the quantity of white onions being exported. This exemption has been granted in response to requests from friendly countries facing a shortage of onions in their domestic markets. The DGFT is a branch of the Ministry of Commerce that determines standards related to imports and exports. It is important to note that onions are politically sensitive, and the government usually imposes restrictions on their exports. This exemption is temporary, and the government can revoke it based on domestic availability and prices.

Key points of the order:

  1. Relaxation in the ban on onion exports has been provided.
  2. Exporters need to obtain a certificate from the Gujarat government.
  3. Permission for export is granted from the ports of Mundra, Pipavav, and Nhava Sheva/JNPT.
  4. This exemption has been granted in response to requests from friendly countries.
  5. A ban on exports was imposed in December 2023 to control domestic availability and prices.
