By Vijay Kumar

NOTIFICATION No. 71 dated 09.09.2011 made export of non-basmati rice free by the private parties from privately held stocks only through Custom EDI ports.

Now export of non-basmati rice is also permitted from non-EDI Land Custom Stations on Bangladesh and Nepal border. The only requirement for export through LCS will be registration of quantity with DGFT.

State Trading Enterprises (STEs) including M/s. NCCF & NAFED have also been permitted to export privately held stocks of non-basmati rice.
