India has extended the timeline for duty-free imports of yellow peas by four more months until October 2024, according to an official notification. In early December, the central government allowed duty-free imports of yellow peas until March 2024, later to be extended till April and then June. It was part of New Delhi's intervention to cool the prices of the overall pulse basket. Reportedly, the duty on yellow peas was first implemented in November 2017 at 50 per cent. India largely imports yellow peas from Canada and Russia. (ICE NEW DELHI)
