The Indian Sugar and Bio-Energy Manufacturers Association has welcomed the Supreme Court order against preferential treatment for a standalone Dedicated Ethanol Plant (DEP) in allocation of ethanol quantity to be sourced by oil marketing companies. If the Supreme Court had upheld the Karnataka High Court order in favour of a Dedicated Ethanol Plant, nearly 199 crore litre of ethanol could have shifted away from non-DEPs, sugar-based ethanol would have seen a reduction of around 73 crore litre, and this would have meant major revenue losses for sugar mills, the Association said in a press release.
