The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has invited fresh applications for the remaining quantity under the Raw Sugar Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) Scheme.
As per DGFT Public Notice No. 28/2026-27 dated 1 September 2026, applications for 7,97,450 MT have already been allocated out of the total quota of 10,00,000 MT. Therefore, a balance quantity of 2,02,550 MT Raw Sugar is now available.
· Who Can Apply?
Eligible sugar millers and refiners may submit applications online through:
DGFT Portal → Import Management System → Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ)
The application window will remain open for seven days from the publication date.
· Daily Allocation Process
- Applications received up to 5:30 PM will form one daily batch.
- Applications received after 5:30 PM will move to the next day’s batch.
- If demand exceeds the available quota, allocation will be made on a pro-rata basis.
- Applications received after the quota is fully allocated will not be considered.

· Key Takeaway
Eligible applicants should submit complete and accurate applications promptly. Applying does not guarantee the full requested quantity, as allocation depends on eligibility and availability of the balance Raw Sugar TRQ.
