Deccan Sugar and Shree Ambika Sugars have surrendered the additional quota to import 11,555 tn of raw sugar allocated to them by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade. The foreign trade body allocated an additional quota of 2,958 tn to Deccan Sugar, and 8,597 tn to Shree Ambika Sugars. Subsequent to the initial allocation of quota for import of sugar on Sep 13, nine applicants had surrendered their allotted quotas amounting to 92,660 tn. The mills surrendered the quota as the quantity allocated to them was very small and thus import would be unviable. Our agreement for the initially allocated quantity has already happened and the shipment is arriving on Oct 7. Deccan Sugar had applied for 25,000 tn raw sugar, while three refining units of Shree Ambika Sugars had requested for a total quota of 135,165 tn raw sugar. The Directorate General of Foreign Trade, however, initially allocated a quota of 5,942 tn raw sugar to Deccan Sugar, and 17,269 tn raw sugar to the refining units of Shree Ambika Sugars.
