This trend is likely to continue in February 2025, however the growth will pick up in the last four months of current fiscal year and hence there will be no further loss in revenue collection on account of autonomous growth during March-June (2024-25).
The Import of palm oil would also be increased in March 2024 having a positive impact on import taxes, sources said.
