Centre eases restriction on wheat exports

New Delhi, 17/5: The Centre on Tuesday announced relaxation to its order restricting wheat exports.

 

“It’s been decided that wherever wheat consignments have been handed over to Customs for examination and registered into their systems on or prior to May 13, such consignments would be allowed for export,” the government said in an order.

 

 

India, the world’s second-biggest wheat producer, had banned wheat exports in a bid to check high domestic prices amid concerns of wheat output being hit by scorching heat waves.
