India has allowed the export of non-basmati white rice to the tune of 75,000 tonnes to the UAE. Notably, the export of non-basmati white rice was prohibited from July 20 to check the domestic prices and ensure domestic food security. The exports to UAE are permitted through National Cooperative Exports Limited, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade said in its notification on late Monday evening. While amending the export policy, DGFT maintained that the export will be allowed on the basis of permission granted by the government to other countries to meet their food security needs and based on the request of their government. Last month, India had decided to allow the export of rice to «meet the food security requirements» of Singapore. West African country Benin is one of the major importers of non-basmati rice from India.

global bond index and anticipation of more such announcements will likely bolster the rupee vis-a-vis its peers even as the probability of US interest rates remaining higher for longer theoretically dims the appeal of emerging market assets. While the Reserve Bank of India is likely to absorb some of the dollar inflows and ensure competitiveness of exports, the stable influx of overseas funds is seen providing the rupee a cushion against a multi-year ascent in US bond yields and hardening crude oil prices. Major dollar inflows on account of index inclusion are not expected for around six months but at a time when peer units such as the Chinese yuan and the Malaysian ringgit have been taking a beating against the greenback, the view on the rupee remains constructive. «The inclusion of India in one of the major global indices is a clear medium-term positive — both from the flows perspective and additional inflows which it can bring in if other index providers also include India,» said Anubhuti Sahay, Standard Chartered Bank's Head of South Asia Economic Research. Last week, JP Morgan said India would be included in its Government Bond Index Emerging Markets global index suite starting June 2024, a development that is expected to bring in over $20 billion of stable flows to India's sovereign bond market over two years. Following the move, traders hope for a similar announcement by the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index. «Between March 2024 and March 2025, we expect $20-25 billion only on the JP Morgan inclusion.

India's limited participation in global value chains (GVCs) hampers its export potential, despite possessing substantial manufacturing capabilities across various GVC-relevant product categories. The integration of Indian companies in the GVCs is fundamental as about 70 per cent of global trade operates within these chains, encompassing a wide range of products, from electronics and machinery to pharmaceuticals and apparel. «India's weak GVC integration can be attributed to poor trade infrastructure, causing delays at ports and customs, which are detrimental to the timely flow of goods in these intricate value chains,» GTRi Co-Founder Ajay Srivastava said. Countries like China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Malaysia have excelled in GVCs due to investments in quality trade infrastructure. The GTRI report has recommended six action points to the government which can help boost the participation of domestic firms in GVCs. The suggestions include automating port and customs procedures, and implementation of green channel clearances for 99 per cent of shipments; analysing the top 10,000 exporters responsible for 85 per cent of India's exports; matching global best practices for ship turnaround times, reducing queues, speeding up transactions, and optimizing infrastructure use; and enhance communication between traders and shipping companies, port operators, and Container Freight Stations (CFS). The report asked for creation of an online platform for all export-import compliance processes. «National Trade Network (NTN) would enable exporters to submit all required information and documents in one place, eliminating the need to interact separately with customs, DGFT (directorate general of foreign trade), shipping
