The notification amends the export policy for Red Sanders wood (Pterocarpus Santalinus) sourced from cultivation on private land.

Applications for this authorization must include attested copies of the Certificate of Origin from the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (PCCF), confirming procurement from legal sources, and a certificate verifying the current stock position after physical inspection. The total annual quota is set at 1,290 MT, with specific quotas including 280 MT for Andhra Pradesh, 900 MT for Tamil Nadu, 10 MT for Karnataka, and 100 MT for Gujarat. It also imposes a zero export quota for wild specimens and mandates that State Governments develop a digital platform with Geo-referenced sites for tracking trees.
