India's Department of Food and Public Distribution has asked the revenue department to impose a 5% GST on de-oiled rice bran. Rice bran and de-oiled bran look alike and are currently sold to animal feed producers tax-free.
A 5% GST would raise the cost of de-oiled rice bran for feed buyers and push more bran toward oil extraction. That would reduce feed-grade bran supply in India.
