New Delhi: The Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution on July 18, 2023 issued a communication to sugar mills, requesting them to furnish domestic sales data prior to the allocation of the sugar quota for August 2023. This step has been taken to ensure data accuracy and strict adherence to stock holding limits across all sugar mills nationwide.
In a letter sent to sugar mills, DFPD said, “In order to enhance the level of data accuracy and to ensure that stock holding limit is being strictly followed by all the sugar mills across the country, all the sugar mills are requested to provide a copy of GSTR1 (PDF format) along with the details submitted at serial no. 12 of the report wherein HSN Code wise details have been uploaded by the mill on GSTN Portal for the month of June, 2023 at the earliest by 20.07 2023 at sugarcontrol-fpd@gov.in and cdsugar-fpd@gov.in.”
“For Group Undertakings, the group may share the report with separate mill wise details in the same format which was used for submission of details of Sl. No. 12 of GSTR1 mentioned above,” the letter further added.
The government emphasized that the provided information is important for the allocation of the sugar quota, and the quota for the month of August 2023 will not be allocated to mills which will fail to submit the information in time.
