Indian pulses outpriced in world mkt; exports may take time to begin.
The Centre may have lifted its more than a decade-long ban on export of pulses, but shipments from India take time to start as the domestic produce is out-priced in the global market. There is no parity (in prices) to export pulses currently, particularly in tur as (the) Burmese origin is much cheaper than local rates and Indian exporters can export only after 7-8 months. Tur from Burma is being sold at 2,500 rupees per 100 kg compared with the domestic prices of 4,000 rupees. In the global market, Burmese tur is being sold for $450 per tonne, while urad of the same origin fetches $625 per tonne, cost and freight basis. Moong from Tanzania is priced at $600 per tonne.
