Preface This report is prepared in response to the request of Department of Agriculture and Cooperation in the process of finding implementable solutions to the recommendations of the Expert Committee on Agricultural Marketing. The Report specifically covers areas relating to commodity forward and futures markets, administration of which is mandated to the Department of Consumer Affairs. Though a number of major initiatives have been taken in promoting commodity futures markets in India in the recent past, many of the constraints inherited over decades of scarcity mindset generated ‘inward looking’ policies continue. The efforts of the Group have been not only in identifying these constraints but in suggesting measures for overcoming them in a short span of identifying these constraints but in suggesting measures for overcoming them in a short span of time as derivatives transactions across the world are growing in size and maturity. So are regulatory concerns and approaches. Thus, while the basic terms of references have been in terms of expanding the number of commodities in the permitted basket of commodities and in strengthening the institutions, the Group had to look beyond in the context of market and regulatory dynamics which is evolving globally. The Group recognised that in the post-WTO markets, forward and futures markets have to be leveraged according to the global trends. I take this opportunity to gratefully acknowledge the contribution by all the Members of this Group and of those who represented. Particular thanks are due to Shri Anand Kumar Bhatt, Chairman, FMC, Shri Sudhir Kumar, MD, SFAC, Shri J.G. Gupta, GM, RBI and Shri R. Gandhi, GM, RBI, Shri C.K.G. Nair, Director and other officials associated with IT Desk, notably Smt. Alice Chacko, Under Secretary and Dr. Bhagwan Das, Research Officer. New Delhi December 2001 (Dr. Kalyan Raipuria) Economic Adviser & Chairman of the Group (i) Executive Summary Commodity futures trading in India commenced more than 100 years back. Major enactment to this effect was in the form of Forward Contract Regulation Act (FCRA), 1952. But, the situation has not matured due to the virtual banning of futures trading since the early 60s till late 80s when the scarcity environment prevailed. Presently, it remains in a state of flux and formation. 2. The commodity futures trading suffers from a number of limitations. The limited and closed nature of membership, absence of many hedgers who have substantial underlying positions, absence of transparency ( opacity ), limitations of prudential regulation, absence of a legal framework for warehouse receipt system and its negotiability and transferability etc. are serious constraints under which the current system operates. Quite often, the system is criticised that no futures trading which serves the intended purpose of price discovery and risk management is currently taking place. 3. However, since the beginning of 90s, concerted efforts have been made in expanding the scope of futures trading, along with general economic reforms. As a result of the renewed interest among the stake-holders, efforts have been made in both increasing the number of commodities permitted for futures trading and several institutional reforms. 4. Among reforms, the regulatory framework has been strengthened, exchanges have been exposed to the best practices from across the world, institutional interface between the various related agencies have been strengthened, enabling provisions for commencing options trading etc. have been proposed by means of amendments to the Act, initiatives such as modern national level commodity exchanges have been proposed and warehousing aspects such as receipt systems are being actively pursued. (ii) 5. As proposed in the National Agricultural Policy, 2000 more agro commodities are being identified and added to the list of permitted commodities for futures trading (latest example being sugar). The objective has to be to move towards a situation where all ‘candidate commodities’ would be automatically allowed for futures trading under the overall regulation of the commodity market regulator. 6. The regulatory framework needs to be strengthened further by making the regulator autonomous and by strengthening the interface with other market regulators. and by strengthening the interface with other market regulators. 7. The Exchanges and other stake-holders are to wake up to the challenges facing commodity futures trading and ‘upgrade’ their action plans to face these challenges. 8. The level of general awareness, particularly that of farmers and their cooperatives, on futures trading and related issues needs to be raised for increasing participation in the futures markets. (iii) Chapter – 1 Background of Forward and Futures Trading in India 1.1 The number of individual commodities permitted for futures trading in India have increased from 11 in the mid-90s to 42 as of now, including derivatives of specific commodities. (In some of the commodities allowed futures trading is yet to start: eg, tea and sugar). 20 Commodity Exchanges located in various parts of the country are recognized/registered for conducting futures trading in these commodities. A list of these exchanges along with commodities permitted for trading is given at Annexure-I . 1.2 In the light of the perceived advantages of Forward and Futures Markets in terms of price discovery and risk management, as market based instruments such markets have been identified as important tools of price stabilisation. In the light of comprehensive reforms in agricultural marketing contemplated by the Government, extension of the facilities of forward and futures markets to all major agro commodities has assumed tropical importance. This urgency is reflected in the National Agricultural Policy of Government of India announced in the year 2000. 1.3 In pursuance of the National Agricultural Policy 2000 of the Government of India an Expert Committee was set up in December 2000 by the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation to recommend various reforms in agricultural marketing; whose recommendations (submitted Report in June, 2001) include the following relating to forward and futures markets in commodities :- More commodities should be permitted for forward and futures trading to facilitate competitive and free marketing system. Govt. has to continue its efforts to strengthen the commodity exchanges and to instill confidence and awareness among market players. The Present System 1.4 Government have already been pursuing the necessary activities in widening and deepening the commodity futures market in the country in the last decade, particularly since the mid-90s. These efforts had two major components. a. Increasing the number of commodities permitted for futures trading and b. Strengthening the institutional structure and the legal framework for futures trading. 1.5 Commodity futures trading is conducted under a three-tier regulatory framework. The Exchanges themselves are the first-tier regulators, who are responsible for the orderly conducting of trade as stipulated under the rules, by-laws and other directions of the Forward Markets Commission (FMC), which is the market regulator, the second-tier of the regulatory frame. The FMC recommends (FMC), which is the market regulator, the second-tier of the regulatory frame. The FMC recommends approval of exchanges, approves by-laws of exchanges and engages in surveillance of exchanges for orderly conducting of futures trading. At the apex level is the Department of Consumer Affairs in the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution that approves the exchanges, approves commodities for futures trading and formulate appropriate policies and rules for the development of this sector. Constraints on Commodity Futures Trading 1.6 Commodity futures trading is like a Cinderella of derivatives trading. In many of the discussions on development of derivatives market, regulatory reforms and in designing other institutional structures, references to commodity futures trading is hardly even mentioned. This relative lack of recognition of commodity futures is mainly on account of the serious constraints under which this market now functions. Apart from physical/infrastructural limitations such as near absence of online trading, online surveillance and monitoring, prohibition on major products for derivatives trading, the non-availability of fool proof legal system of contracts, particularly relating to the warehouse receipt

The catalyst was characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM).The transesterification was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Under the optimal conditions of methanol to oil molar ratio of 8:1, catalyst concentration of 4.0wt %, reaction temperature of 550C, reaction time of 4hr and agitation speed of 400rpm, 92.0% biodiesel was achieved. The reaction kinetics conforms to a pseudo-second order rate law with reaction rate constants of 1.96E-5, 2.17E-5 and 5.18E-5, at 45, 50 and 550C, respectively. Activation energy (EA) for the reaction was 90.98 kJ/mol and pre-exponential factor of1.46E10dm3mol-1min-1.Thermodynamic parameters calculated for the reaction show the enthalpy and entropy for the process to be 90.98 kJ mol-1 and 0.195 kJ mol-1 respectively.

Up to 44% Butter can be extracted from kernels using chemical solvents making it cheaper for industrial use (bath & beauty industry. when such chemically processed Kokum butter is used in cosmetics, soaps and even edibles, the end product isn’t 100% natural either! 100% Natural Raw Kokum butter is a white or creamish yellow or at times even a slightly grey tint or brown colored. Which is extracted by traditional rural/cottage industry sized oil mills. Kokum seeds are gathered from natural forest habitats. These seeds are decorticated. The final product is obtained by crushing the kernels in oil expeller, boiling the pulp in water and skimming off the fat from the top or churning the crushed pulp with water. The idea here is to physically separate oil from water as these two liquids are immiscible. It’s a time consuming process and the yield in this case is only about 25% of raw Kokum butter. Therefore the production cost of raw Kokum butter remains high. Raw Kokum butter suits those formulators who want to remain honest while marketing their natural products and their customers who appreciate the use of genuine and honest ingredients (natural smell, colour, properties) in the products they use 100% Natural Raw Kokum Butter Manufacturing Process Collection, Cleaning & Drying of Kokum Seeds Kokum seeds are gathered from various wild sources!

It does not require spraying, irrigation or fertilizers. The Garcinia indica tree has great health benefits that are from the fruits which is highly enriched in polyisoprenylated benzophenone derivatives such as Garcinol that a yellow, fat soluble pigment and contain isogarcinol which is its colorless isomer. Garcinol possess anti-oxidative, chelating, anti-inflammatory, free radical scavenging, anti-ulcer and anticancer activities. The fruit contains compounds including hydroxycitric acid lactones, citric acid and oxalic acid. Its oil can be freezed and used as butter. Kokum seed butter is non-greasy that’s why used in many creams, cosmetics, soaps and conditioners. Amrut kokum is sugary syrup of kokum fruit, which is a strong soft drink to reduce thirst that is very popular throughout the summer season. Kokum is loaded with B complex, minerals and vitamins which help to control blood pressure and heart rate.
