Customs Duty Exemptions updated on Rice imports: The notification amends two earlier notifications 27/2011 and 22/2024. It update the classification and duty exemptions on various categories of rice, especially concerning GI-tagged and milled varieties. A revised entry substitutes the earlier listing with “Parboiled Rice, GI recognised” attracting nil duty. A new entry has been added for “Other Parboiled Rice” also at nil duty. Another entry has been updated to cover “Other Rice, GI Recognised” at nil duty, and a new entry has been introduced for “Semi milled or wholly milled rice whether or not polished or glazed” at nil duty, excluding rice already classified under previous items.
