NEW DELHI, Sept 30: The Government has exempted export of ‘Bangalore Rose’ onion from duty, subject to certain conditions.
The Finance Ministry issued a notification granting exemption from export duty on Bangalore Rose onion provided that the exporter furnishes a certificate from the state Horticulture Commissioner, certifying the item and quantity of Bangalore Rose onion to be exported.
In August, the Ggovernment imposed a 40 per cent duty on export of all varieties of onions to increase domestic availability and check price rise in the local market. (PTI)
