West Bengal (Kolkata) [India], March 11: The Federation of All India Tea Traders Association (FAITTA), the apex body of tea traders, buyers, packers, and retailers of tea in India, has extended support to the Commerce Ministry and Tea Board’s decision to conduct 100% dust tea auction trial for three months.
In a recent notification, the Commerce Ministry stated that 100% of dust grade tea produced in a calendar year in manufacturing units located in Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura, Uttarakhand, and West Bengal, would be sold through public tea auctions. This decision has led to concerns about potential disruptions in production, which would especially affect small tea growers. However, FAITTA has dismissed such concerns as unwarranted.
