Govt sells 230,750 MT wheat via OMSS in Nov, up 76% on month.

The government sold 230,750 tn wheat under the open market sales scheme in November, sharply higher than 131,150 in the previous month. India has imported nearly 2 MMT wheat so far in the current marketing year started April, and nearly half of it is still stocked at ports. High imports have kept buyers away from government tenders, and though sales have picked up, they are way lower than the total quantity offered.
