India has exported 2.87 lakh tonnes (lt) of sugar till April 8 out of 10 lt quota permitted by the government in January in the ongoing 2024-25 season (October-September), out of which maximum quantity has been shipped to Somalia, All India Sugar Trade Association (AISTA) said on Wednesday.
The sugar despatch from mills for export, however, was 3.05 lt, as nearly 18,000 tonnes are in transit or under loading.
After a gap of more than one year, India allowed sugar export on January 20 by distributing millwise quota and also has provided flexibility to sugar factories to exchange the permit with domestic quota.
Sharing the details of countrywise export, AISTA said that 51,596 tonnes have been shipped to Somalia, 48,864 tonnes to Afghanistan, 46,757 tonnes to Sri Lanka and 30,729 tonnes to Libya.
Other countries which imported Indian sugar included Djibouti with 27,064 tonnes, the UAE 21,834 tonnes, Tanzania 21,141 tonnes, Bangladesh 5,589 tonnes and China 5,427 tonnes, the trade body said adding the pace of export, though slow now, is likely to pick up in one month.
“The impact of falling crude prices has to be seen on sugar prices because ethanol is a major contributor to transportation fuel,” it said.
