India extends ban on onion exports indefinitely ahead of general election

By Economic Times - 8 months ago
India has extended its ban on onion exports indefinitely, a move that comes ahead of a general election and is expected to exacerbate high prices in some overseas markets. The ban, imposed in December, was due to expire on March 31. Traders had anticipated it would be lifted, but the government issued an order late on Friday. India, the world's biggest onion exporter, accounts for more than half of all onion imports by Asian countries.
