The Roller Flour Millers Federation asked the Indian government to raise wheat buffer stocks to about 18 million tonnes at the start of the season, roughly 140% above the current 7.5 million tonne norm. The federation also urged free wheat product exports, GST relief on flour, and noted possible sowing delays in Punjab due to floods.
