The original Public Notice also covered modalities for application and distribution of TRQ for import of 10 Lakh MT of Raw Sugar and a one-time conversion from Advance Authorisation (AA) Scheme to TRQ Scheme. All other terms and conditions of the Public Notice dated 20th August, 2026, remain unchanged.
