India's Ethanol Supplies Exceed 800 Crore Litres with Grain-Based Share Rising to 76%
India's ethanol supplies surpassed 800 crore litres during the Ethanol Supply Year 2025-26, with July's total at 93 crore litres. Grain-based feedstocks accounted for about 76% of July's supplies, rising from 73% in June, driven mainly by maize and surplus Food Corporation of India grains. Sugarcane-based feedstocks contributed 24% in July, down from 27% in June. The All India Distillers' Association highlighted this milestone as a reflection of the domestic industry's growth and diversification in ethanol production.
