India's coffee exports have risen by 25.78% during January 1 to February 19 at 30,100 tons against 23,930 tons in the corresponding period of previous year, though realisations of the exporters have taken a hit on account of bearish global prices of the commodity, despite a weakening currency in the recent months.
Including the coffee imported for re-exports, the total shipments were up 23% at 44,114 tons (35,739 tons), as per the data of the Coffee Board. The Board has pegged the 2015-16 crop at 3.5 lakh tons, a 7% increase over the previous season’s 3.27 lakh tons.
