Govt extends duty-free import window for yellow peas till March 2026

The Centre on Saturday extended the duty-free import window for yellow peas until 31 March 2026, aiming to stabilise domestic pulse prices and ensure adequate supply. The extension, notified by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), permits importers to bring in yellow peas without the minimum import price (MIP) condition or port restrictions, provided the bill of lading is dated on or before the new deadline. The liberalised policy is expected to help manage price volatility in the pulses market, particularly as tur and other key pulses continue to face supply constraints. The earlier policy was valid until 31 May 2025. With this extension, the government maintains its calibrated approach to easing import restrictions on select pulses to bridge domestic demand-supply gaps. All imports under this provision will require registration under the online Import Monitoring System, which remains a mandatory compliance requirement. The decision has been taken under the Foreign Trade (Development & Regulation) Act, 1992, and has received the approval of the minister of commerce and industry. The move is likely to ease price pressures ahead of the festive season in major consuming states, according to traders familiar with the matter. It is also expected to benefit pulse processors and millers by ensuring continued access to overseas yellow pea supplies without regulatory hurdles. The government has previously issued a series of notifications to adjust the import policy for yellow peas, including those dated 8 December 2023, 23 February 2024, 5 April 2024, 8 May 2024, 13 September 2024, 24 December 2024, and most recently, 10 March 2025. The latest extension signals a continued intent to retain flexibility in agricultural imports in response to shifting domestic needs. Bimal Kothari, chairman of the India Pulses and Grains Association (IPGA), criticised the government's decision to extend the duty-free import period for yellow peas, saying it could have adverse effects on Indian farmers. 'Allowing imports for such a prolonged period will discourage farmers who cultivate chana from expanding their cultivation area,' Kothari said. He warned that this move could undermine the government's goal of making India self-reliant in pulses by reducing incentives for domestic production growth. The government has launched a mission for atmanirbharta (self-reliance) in pulses, with an outlay of ₹ 1,000 crore over the next six years. As of 31 May, the average retail price of chana dal stood at ₹ 86.26 per kg, compared to ₹ 86.12 per kg a year earlier.

Hyderabad registers home sales worth Rs 4000+ crore in April'25: Knight Frank India report

Hyderabad, May 31 (UNI) Hyderabad saw a downward revision of 12 percent year-on-year (YoY) despite the cumulative value of homes registered in April '25 remaining firmly above the Rs 4,000 crore value, according to the latest residential property registrations report released by Knight Frank India. While a slight marginal 4 percent dip was also recorded in the value of the properties registered in April 2025, registrations of homes priced above Rs 1 crore grew by 2 percent YoY, accounting for 20 percent of total registrations in April 2025, up from 17 percent last year, the report revealed. This signals a continued trend in preference for premium homes across the Hyderabad region, which includes Hyderabad, Medchal-Malkajgiri, Rangareddy, and Sangareddy districts. The Rs 1+ crore category, while remaining the smallest by volume at 20 percent, contributed 51 percent to the total value of registrations in April'25. Upon analysis, it was noted that there has been a shift in the average prices in this category by almost 11 percent. The cumulative value of homes in Rs 1+ crore increased by 14 percent YoY compared with April 2024. Majority of the registered properties in Hyderabad were concentrated in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 square feet (sq ft), accounting for 67 percent of all registrations, the report stated. Units sized >2,000 sq ft accounted for 18 per cent of the total registrations as compared with the 15 per cent registered during April 2024. At the district level, Rangareddy accounted for 48 percent of property registrations, followed by Medchal-Malkajgiri (36%). Hyderabad district contributed the remaining 15 percent of total registrations. The weighted average price of transacted residential properties witnessed a YoY increase of 6 percent during April 2025. Among the districts, Rangareddy experienced the most increase of 9 percent YoY. Beyond the concentration of bulk transactions, homebuyers also purchased plush properties that are larger and offer superior amenities. The top five deals in April 2025 involved properties valued above Rs 7 crore. Three of these transactions were recorded in West Hyderabad, while two were in Central Hyderabad. Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India said, 'Hyderabad's residential market recorded a marginal decline in monthly sales volume in April 2025, reflecting a short-term moderation in transaction the sustained demand for premium homes—especially those priced above Rs 1 crore, which now contribute significantly to overall registration value—continues to demonstrate the market's underlying strength. This evolving buyer preference toward larger, higher-value homes indicates growing confidence in Hyderabad's long-term liveability and economic potential'. UNI KNR BD

Kolkata victims lose over Rs 78 lakh in jewellery and cyber fraud cases

Kolkata: Two separate frauds in the city have led victims to lose more than Rs 78 lakh. In the first case reported from central Kolkata, a woman who arrived in Kolkata after the pandemic filed a police complaint against three individuals, including a man allegedly impersonating an army officer, for fraudulently obtaining her jewellery worth over Rs 11 lakh to be used to acquire a gold loan. In another incident, a resident of Action Area-2D, New Town, fell victim to a sophisticated cyber fraud scheme, losing Rs 67.5 lakh in a fake online share trading scam. The first victim, a resident of Purna Das Road, accused one person named P Mahajan, who posed as a major, a retired "colonel" by the name R Robertson, and one woman of deceiving her under the pretense of requiring financial assistance for their business. According to the complaint, Mahajan and the 'colonel' gained the victim's trust by taking her to military installations in the city. The accused also arranged for her attendance at the Republic Day Parade to establish credibility. "They approached me claiming their business was facing losses and needed financial support," claimed the victim. "I handed over my ancestral jewellery as collateral for a gold loan of Rs 11,26,000. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Despite promises to return the jewellery within 11 months, the accused allegedly failed to do so for over two and a half years." The complainant alleged that when confronted, the accused threatened her with "dire consequences" and attempted to blackmail her. The accused reportedly issued blank cheques to pacify her but have since refused to return her jewellery. In the New Town case, the victim was lured into investing Rs 67.5 lakh through what appeared to be a legitimate private banking application. The fraudsters promised returns of Rs 3 crore on his investment, compelling him to transfer funds through multiple RTGS transactions. The scam came to light when the perpetrators demanded additional payments on May 20, threatening to cancel his investment plan if he failed to comply. Realising he was defrauded, the victim promptly reported the incident to the National Cyber Crime Portal. Kolkata: Two separate frauds in the city have led victims to lose more than Rs 78 lakh.
