The Aluminium Association of India (AAI), has urged the government to exempt aluminium products from the recent RoDTEP rate cut as it would help Indian exporters remain competitive in the international market.
AAI, the apex body representing the top aluminium producers within the country, in its representation to the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), has requested the government to remove aluminium exports from the recent 50 per cent RoDTEP cut, just like the government has already done for agricultural products.
The export support scheme, Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP), launched in 2021, provides for a refund of taxes, duties and levies that are incurred by exporters in the process of manufacturing and distribution of goods, and are not being reimbursed under any other mechanism at the Centre, state or local level.
It also made a plea to the government to fix RoDTEP rates for 2026-27 based on the actual taxes exporters bear, so that aluminium

Adani Total Gas Ltd has cut the price of excess natural gas supplied to certain industrial customers to Rs 82.95 per standard cubic metre (SCM) from Rs 119.90 per SCM, effective 0600 hours on March 16, as upstream gas prices softened amid ongoing supply disruptions.
The city gas joint venture of Adani Group and France's Total Energies said the revision aims to pass on the benefit of lower upstream prices to customers while maintaining system stability and equitable distribution of gas during the current supply constraints.
Following the disruption in India's LNG supplies due to the halt in the movement of ships through the Strait of Hormuz as a fallout of the war in West Asia, ATGL had asked commercial and industrial customers to curtail consumption to 40 per cent of their contracted volumes.
Spot market rates were applied to consumption beyond this threshold.
Rates for this segment have not been cut.

The Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) has criticized the "unfair, unprecedented, and unacceptable decision" to strip its team of the Africa Cup of Nations title and award it to host nation Morocco two months after they contested the final.
The Confederation of African Football's appeals board on Tuesday ruled Senegal "forfeited the final" by walking off the field and turned its 1-0 win in extra time into a 3-0 default win for Morocco.
The FSF said the decision "discredits African football," and that it will appeal "as soon as possible" to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, Switzerland, a process that would typically take a year to deliver a verdict.
"The FSF reaffirms its unwavering commitment to the values of integrity and sporting justice and will keep the public informed of developments in this matter," the federation said in a statement.

Massive vacancy and mounting case backlog of more than five lakh are undermining the effectiveness of the consumer grievance redressal system in the country, a first-of-its-kind report based on assessment of functioning of consumer courts from 2021 to 2025 said.
More than half the posts of presidents and members in the state consumer disputes redressal commissions (SCDRC) remain vacant, the Consumer Justice Report prepared by the India Justice Report (IJR) said.
The report said that between 2020 and 2024, the pendency of cases increased by 21 per cent, from 87,545 to 5.15 lakh.
While the Consumer Protection Act mandates cases to be resolved "as expeditiously as possible" within a timeline of 3-5 months, the report found that more than one-third of cases remained unresolved for over three years, far exceeding the mandated timeline.
In Kerala, Jammu and Kashmir and Jharkhand, more than two in three cases (70 to 80 per cent) were pending for more than three years, it said.
