India on Monday tightened the curbs on import of refined palm oil by putting more conditions for the inbound shipments of the commodity.
India announced the restrictions on imports of refined palm oil on January 8 in a bid to help domestic refiners raise their plant utilisation rates, according to industry officials familiar with the matter. Following India's curb on imports, thousands of tonnes of refined palm oil are delayed or stuck at various Indian ports.
The revenue department on Wednesday imposed 5 per cent safeguard duty on imports of refined palm oil from Malaysia, taking the customs levy to 50 per cent for six months, a move aimed at protecting interest of domestic players.
