India's rice export vessel line-up fell 4.5% week on week to 1.12 million tonnes as of 30 October 2026, according to BigMint data. Shipments are scheduled from Kandla, Kakinada and Chennai to destinations mainly in Africa, with the Philippines, Senegal and Iran among the largest listed volumes.
A smaller export queue points to somewhat tighter near-term Indian rice availability for buyers, though the volume is routine shipping data. The effect on global rice prices is modest.
