Centre may extend duty-free urad imports

Mint Chennai

February 12, 2025

Urad production has fallen from 2.7 mt in FY22 to 2.6 mt in FY23 and 2.3 mt in FY24, as per agriculture ministry data

- Dhirendra Kumar

The Centre is considering allowing duty-free import of urad beyond 31 March amid a supply crunch, two people aware of the matter said. The pulse variety, widely consumed in Southern India, is allowed to be imported without any duty, and the policy is likely to be continued given that its domestic production has been on a steady decline.
