The Indian government has increased usage charges for gunny bags by 40% to Rs 10.22 per bag, responding to requests from states and Union Territories. This move aims to ease their financial burden and streamline procurement operations. The revised rate, applicable from KMS 2025-26, follows recommendations from a committee and aligns with the rising cost of new bags.
