Gaikwad told FE Commissionerate shall now issue the circular to millers and wait for 10 days other interventions to improve the cash flow of sugar mills. “ We expect exports to pick up with the Maharashtra State Cooperative Bank Bank agreeing to give a short-term loan to millers to overcome the issue of short margins and thereby releasing sugar for exports.” “Millers have also sought a rise in the MFP of sugar from Rs 2,900 per quintal to Rs 3,100. Unless the cash flow increases, the issue of payments shall continue. The FRP payment component has improved and has come down to 31% to 41% last week. In absolute terms, the pending FRP dues are around Rs 4,500 crore,” he said.
