The Indian government will introduce a new regulation next week to enhance oversight and transparency in the vegetable oil sector, Food Secretary Sanjeev Chopra announced. The 2025 Vegetable Oil Products, Production and Availability (VOPPA) Regulation Order will replace the existing 2011 framework, mandating digital reporting of production, sales, pricing, and stock data.

📊 According to the Edible Oil Producers Association of India (SEA), in July the share of Ukrainian oil in total imports of this oil to India exceeded the share of Russian supplies for the first time in two years. Of the 200 thousand tons of sunflower oil purchased by India in July, the share of Ukrainian products was 39%, and Russian - 25% or 49 thousand tons. Before that, for a long time the share of Ukrainian oil in Indian imports fluctuated within 13-34%, but did not exceed the volume of purchases of Russian oil, which was the leader in the Indian market for the last few seasons.
