NEW DELHI: The Centre on Friday tightened wheat stock holding limits for traders, wholesalers, big chain retailers, and processors in order to check price rise and hoarding.
The revised stock limits on wheat come barely two months after they were imposed on June 24. The restrictions will remain in force until March 31, 2025 across all states and Union Territories.
Under the revised rules, traders and wholesalers are allowed to stock up to 2,000 tonnes now, as against 3,000 tonne earlier, an official statement said.PTI
