FAQ :
The Ministry will address the food processing industry's concerns regarding Goods and Services Tax (GST) rates and the overall GST framework.
The roundtable was co-chaired by Commerce & Industry Minister Piyush Goyal and Food Processing Industries Minister Chirag Paswan.
Key issues included demands for reduced GST rates, ease of doing business, misconceptions surrounding processed food, maximum residue limits (MRL), the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, and regulatory frameworks.

A notable concern was the ongoing export of 'maida' (refined flour) despite a ban on wheat exports.
