The review highlighted strong gains in key areas, including procurement of forest and agricultural products, as well as increased sales of daily-use items and LPG cylinders. Financial assistance to coffee farmers has also risen, reflecting enhanced support to tribal growers. Improvements were recorded in loan recoveries and sales of Ready-Made Daily (RMD) items. However, essential commodities, super bazaar sales and petrol bunks registered marginal declines.
For the ongoing financial year, GCC has set a coffee procurement target of 1,175 metric tonnes, with procurement prices fixed at ₹450 per kg for Arabica Parchment, ₹270 per kg for Arabica Cherry and ₹170 per kg for Robusta Cherry.
