Edible Oil Prices mein kami!
Centre sarkar ne edible oils jaise sunflower, soybean aur palm oil par basic customs duty 20% se ghata kar 10% kar di hai. Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution ne budhvaar ko yeh announcement kiya. Isse crude aur refined edible oils ke beech import-duty gap 8.75% se badhkar 19.25% ho jaega. Kya baat hai!
Kyon kiya yeh change?
Ministry ne kaha ki September 2024 mein duty hike aur global market ki wajah se edible oil prices badh rahi thi. Isliye yeh revision kiya gaya hai. Sarkar ka maqsad hai ki consumers ko rahat mile.
Sarkar ka advisory
Edible oil associations aur industry stakeholders ko ek advisory jari kiya gaya hai. Isme kaha gaya hai ki duty mein kami ka fayda consumers tak pahunchaya jaye. Simple si baat hai, agar import duty kam hogi toh prices bhi kam hone chahiye!
Duty kam karne se kya hoga?
Import duty edible oils ki landed cost aur domestic prices decide karta hai. Jab import duty kam hogi toh landed cost aur retail prices dono kam honge. Isse aam aadmi ko fayda hoga aur inflation bhi control mein rahega.
Farmers ko bhi fayda
Yeh decision domestic refining ko encourage karega aur farmers ko bhi sahi compensation milega. Basically, sabke liye win-win situation!
Refined Palmolein ka import kam hoga
Nayi duty structure se refined Palmolein ka import kam hoga aur crude edible oils ki demand badhegi, especially crude palm oil ki. Desi refiners ko bhi fayda hoga.
Consumers ko Stabilisation
Ministry ne yeh bhi kaha ki yeh measure sirf domestic refiners ke liye level-playing field ensure karega balki Indian consumers ke liye edible oil prices ko bhi stable karega.
Meeting aur Advisory
Department of Food and Public Distribution secretary ne major edible oil industry associations aur stakeholders ke saath ek meeting ki. Meeting mein industry players ko duty reduction ka fayda consumers tak pahunchane ke liye kaha gaya. Stakeholders se kaha gaya hai ki distributors aur maximum retail price mein bhi changes dikhe.
Railway Projects ko bhi approval
Cabinet ne Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Jharkhand mein Rs 6,405-crore ke railway multitracking projects ko bhi approve kiya. Economy & Finance par NDTV Profit se aur details padhiye.
