2 REASON AND PURPOSES FOR INTRODUCING AND MAINTAINING STATE TRADING ENTERPRISES (STES)

The broad objectives are to ensure stable supply of products, prevent consumers' interests from being affected by drastic price fluctuations, safeguard food security of the nation, and achieve the goal of sustainable development.

3 DESCRIPTION OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE STATE TRADING ENTERPRISES

A. Policy Provisions

Para 2.20 of the Foreign Policy 2015-20 defines STEs as follows: "State Trading Enterprises (STEs) are governmental and nongovernmental enterprises, including marketing boards, which deal with goods for export and/or import. Any good, import or export of which is governed through exclusive or special privilege granted to State Trading Enterprise (STE), may be imported or exported by the concerned STE as per conditions specified in ITC (HS).

Such STE(s) shall make any such purchases or sales involving imports or exports solely in accordance with commercial considerations, including price, quality, availability, marketability, transportation, etc. in a non-discriminatory manner and shall afford enterprises of other countries adequate opportunity, in accordance with customary business practices, to compete for participation in such purchases or sales."

B. Details of STEs for Exports

(i) For certain minerals and ores, exclusive exporting rights are granted to particular enterprises. Export prices in all these cases are determined on commercial considerations and by the demand and supply forces in the international market. In the case of iron ore, prices may be fixed on a yearly basis as the exports take place under long-term/annual contracts. In the case of mineral and ore products, the quantities available for export are liable to be restricted from time to time, keeping in view the domestic requirement as well as the need to conserve exhaustible natural resources. STEs in this regard are:

(a) Kudremukh Iron Ore Company Ltd (KIOCL): KIOCL has been granted the right to export iron ore concentrate, produced by itself, prepared by beneficiation and/or concentration of low grade iron ore containing 40% or less of iron and the right to export Iron ore pellets manufactured by the company out of concentrates produced by itself. The ore available at the mines cannot be put to use commercially without beneficiation or value addition, and technical and logistical constraints make it unviable to put to use the production of the beneficiated ore domestically. The export prices for the product are determined by the market forces of demand and supply. The export levels are on the basis of supply capacity and demand for the products.

(b) Minerals and Metals Trading Corporation Limited (MMTC Ltd.): MMTC was established in 1963 as a Company incorporated under the Indian Companies Act, 1956. MMTC is today India's leading international trading company. MMTC is a major global player in the minerals trade and is the single largest exporter of minerals from India. With its comprehensive infrastructural expertise to handle minerals, the company provides full logistical support for procurement, quality control and guaranteed timely deliveries of minerals from different ports, through a wide network of regional and port offices in India. It has been granted the right to export only specified varieties of manganese ore, chrome ore lumps as and when there is a surplus of these raw materials.

(ii) Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL): Incorporated in 1959, became a corporation in 1964. This company has also been granted the right to import all types of motor spirit (gasoline), all types of aviation spirit, all types of spirit type (gasoline type) jet fuel, kerosene type jet fuels (Aviation turbine fuel), diesel gas oil, other gas oil, kerosene, crude oil and liquefied petroleum gas. It has also been granted the privilege to export crude oil.

C. Details of STEs for imports

(i) For agricultural products, since the main purpose of maintenance of state trading is both a fair return to the farmers as well as food security, i.e. availability of adequate food for all sections of the society at prices affordable by them, domestic and international prices as well as supply conditions are the main determinants of the quantities of imports. The resale price of imported products is based on commercial considerations. The imports face fair competition from the domestic market. For a majority of agricultural products, barring rice and wheat, the import policy stands changed from STE to free with effect from 29th September 2014.

The details of the STEs that had been granted import privileges for the four years 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 are as under:

(a) Food Corporation of India (FCI): FCI was setup under the Food Corporations Act 1964, in order to fulfil the objectives of the Food Policy viz. effective price support operations for safeguarding the interests of the farmers; distribution of food grains throughout the country for the Public Distribution System; and maintaining a satisfactory level of operational and buffer stocks of food grains to ensure national food security. FCI has been granted the right to import cereals like wheat, rye, oats, rice, grain sorghum, buckwheat, millet, canary seed, jawar, bajra, ragi and other cereals. Most of the aforementioned items have been removed from the STE list with effect from September 2014 and put under 'free' category.

(b) State Trading Corporation (STC) of India Ltd.: STC was set up in 1956, as a corporation under the Indian Companies Act 1956, and is one of the premier international trading organizations of the country. Being a specialized trading enterprise, STC has been granted the right to import copra, crude edible oil (coconut oil and its fractions) and Urea.

(ii) Regarding fertilizers, India maintains a system of support for both imported as well as domestic fertilizers. A state trading enterprise imports or procures domestically, keeping in view the international prices, the domestic demand and the necessity of assured supply to farmers. The import levels of urea are established in consultation with the Department of Fertilisers and the Department of Agriculture and Co-operation. The authorises the STEs to import urea for supply to urea handling and marketing companies for distribution throughout the country.

For certain minerals and ores, exclusive importing rights are granted to particular enterprises. Import prices in all these cases are determined on commercial considerations and by the demand and supply forces in the international market.

(a) Minerals and Metals Trading Corporation Limited (MMTC Ltd.): MMTC was established in 1963 as a Company incorporated under the Indian Companies act, 1956. MMTC is today India's leading international trading company. MMTC is a major global player in the minerals trade and is the single largest exporter of minerals from India. With its comprehensive infrastructural expertise to handle minerals, the company provides full logistical support for procurement, quality control and guaranteed timely deliveries of minerals from different ports, through a wide network of regional and port offices in India.
