Lucknow, September 1: Uttar Pradesh's burgeoning sugar-based excise exports have catapulted the state to the third rank among national exporters, with a striking 45.4 percent increase during the first quarter of the 2026-27 financial year. This surge, more than double the national average of 18.3 percent, is testament to the Yogi government's three-year Excise Export Policy 2026-29.
The policy's impact extends beyond bottled products, encompassing agricultural goods like molasses and grain, now integral to the global marketplace. In just one year, Uttar Pradesh's excise exports skyrocketed by 163 percent, with molasses exports alone contributing nearly 5 lakh US dollars in foreign earnings. This growth has attracted fresh investment and reinvigorated existing industrial capacities, with major breweries and distilleries expanding operations in the state.
Uttar Pradesh's share in national excise exports also rose from 10.2 percent to 12.6 percent, solidifying its position as a key player in the sector.
