The EGoM headed by finance minister Pranab Mukherjee allowed export of a million tonnes of sugar for the 2011-2012 crop marketing year that started in October and also lifted the stock holding limit on the sweetener from November 30.

The move, which came after a persistent demand from millers in the wake of a sharp increase in cane prices, has been welcomed by cooperative sugar millers in Maharashtra, big companies in Uttar Pradesh and also the chief minister of Maharashtra.

Meanwhile, the Empowered Group of Ministers (eGoM) on these subjects, also decided not to extend the stock holding limit on sugar beyond November 30. At present, any sugar trader is not allowed to hold more than 500 tonnes.
