Rice stocks are in focus in Wednesday’s session as the government on Tuesday lifted the ban on the export of organic non-basmati rice, including broken rice.

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) in a notification has said that the export of organic non-basmati rice, including organic non-basmati broken rice, will now be governed by rules which were in place prior to the ban imposed in September.

“Rice stocks may see some buying interest as ban on broken rice export has been lifted by DGFT. But, neither rice exporters nor the Government of India can afford to continue with this export ban for long on other rice exporters. So, any dip in rice stocks from here should be seen as an opportunity for bottom-finishing. Stocks like KRBL, Kohinoor Foods, LT Foods are some of the top quality rice stocks that one can think of buying if they dip,” said Avinash Gorakshkar, Head of Research at Profitmart Securities.

In the Early September, The government had  banned the export of broken rice with an aim to increase domestic availability.
