ISMA Strengthens Commitment to Sugarcane Innovation and Farmer Prosperity

ISMA, through the Indian Sugar Exim Corporation (ISEC), a joint representative body of ISMA and NFCSF, has partnered with the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) to advance sugarcane research, breeding and varietal development in India.

The landmark MoU focuses on developing high-yielding, high-recovery and climate-resilient sugarcane varieties, strengthening access to quality planting material and leveraging advanced agricultural technologies.

A key highlight is the proposed establishment of a Global Centre of Excellence for Sugarcane Breeding at ICAR–SBI, Coimbatore.

The partnership reflects ISMA's continued commitment to accelerating innovation, enhancing farm productivity and ensuring better profitability and sustainable incomes for sugarcane farmers.

25 Years of Public Service. One Vision: Nation First. 🇮🇳

ISMA congratulates Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji on completing 25 years as Head of Government (2001–2026). Leading a nation of nearly 1.5 billion people and the world’s largest democracy is a responsibility of extraordinary scale.

Over the years, India has witnessed significant shifts across infrastructure, digitalisation, manufacturing, social development and the transition towards cleaner and more secure sources of energy.

For the sugar and bioenergy sector, the growing policy focus on ethanol, biofuels, energy security and sustainable mobility has created new opportunities to connect agricultural prosperity with India’s clean-energy ambitions.

On this milestone, ISMA extends its best wishes to the Hon’ble Prime Minister for continued strength and success in serving the nation.

25 Years. One Vision. Nation First.

India’s mobility landscape is evolving and so are the frameworks shaping it.

From the introduction of CAFE norms to the upcoming CAFE-III framework, India’s approach to vehicle efficiency is moving towards greater fuel efficiency, lower emissions and technology flexibility.

For the ethanol ecosystem, this evolution matters. It creates space for technologies such as ethanol-powered and flex-fuel vehicles to be part of India’s broader mobility transition.

The ethanol story is moving beyond blending and into the future of mobility.

Some legacies only grow sweeter with time.

On Gandhi Jayanti, we remember Mahatma Gandhi and the timeless values of truth, simplicity and compassion that continue to inspire generations.

A legacy that reminds us that meaningful change often begins with the simplest of actions.

01/10/2026

The introduction of CAFE-III (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) marks an important step towards improving vehicle efficiency while recognising alternative fuel pathways, including ethanol and flex-fuel vehicles.

Importantly, the final notification retains key provisions recognising the contribution of ethanol-blended fuels and flex-fuel technologies to India’s decarbonisation journey. It provides a Carbon Neutrality Factor (CNF) of 8% for vehicles operating on E20 or higher ethanol blends, including Strong Hybrid Electric Vehicles (SHEVs) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), and 22.3% for Flex Fuel Ethanol Vehicles (FFVs).

For the sugar and bio-energy sector, this recognition is significant. Greater integration of domestic biofuels with mobility can enhance fuel flexibility and energy security, while reducing dependence on imported crude oil.

At ISMA, we welcome policy frameworks that support fuel efficiency, cleaner mobility and India’s growing bio-energy ecosystem.

As India moves towards a more diversified energy future, connecting what we produce with how we move will be an important part of that journey.

India’s CBG ecosystem is entering a new phase of scale and certainty.

The GOBARdhan scheme brings together key elements needed to strengthen the CBG value chain, from guaranteed offtake and predictable pricing to long-term policy support and production expansion.

With a target to increase domestic CBG production ten-fold, the scheme creates greater visibility for producers while supporting the wider transition from organic waste to clean energy.

For the sugar and bio-energy sector, this opens up new opportunities to convert agricultural and organic waste into value, strengthen rural economies and contribute to India’s energy security.

From waste to energy. From opportunity to impact.

ISMA welcomes the official launch of the GOBARdhan Scheme at Bharat Mandapam, a major step towards creating a stronger, more predictable and globally competitive Compressed Biogas (CBG) ecosystem in India.

With a total outlay of ₹23,731 crore for FY 2026–27 to FY 2035–36, the Scheme brings together assured offtake, stable pricing, capital assistance, pipeline connectivity, credit support and ecosystem development under one integrated framework. The Government aims to drive nearly 10-fold growth in domestic CBG production.

Key messages from the launch
Hon’ble Minister Shri Hardeep Singh Puri, of Minister of Petroleum & Natural Gas highlighted the significance of the ₹2,110/MMBtu administered CBG price, noting that it is around 30% higher than the global average price. This provides stronger revenue visibility and creates a more supportive economic framework for scaling up domestic CBG production.

Shri Neeraj Mittal, Secretary, MoPNG called upon key players across the CBG ecosystem to maximise the benefits of the GOBARdhan Scheme and collectively work towards making India’s CBG sector the most competitive globally.The six pillars of GOBARdhan Assured Offtake, Pricing Framework, Capital Assistance, Pipeline Infrastructure, Credit Guarantee Support and Ecosystem Challenge Fund provide an integrated foundation for scaling India’s CBG ecosystem.

Shri Alok Kumar, Joint Secretary, MoPNG provided a detailed overview of the Scheme and its implementation framework, highlighting how this scheme work to address the key requirements of the CBG industry

ISMA sincerely thanks Hon’ble Minister Shri Hardeep Singh Puri, Secretary Shri Neeraj Mittal, Joint Secretary Shri Alok Kumar and the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas for their leadership and continued efforts towards strengthening India’s CBG and bioenergy ecosystem.

GOBARdhan can provide the foundation for India to emerge as a globally competitive CBG production hub.

A positive step for India’s ethanol and clean mobility journey

ISMA welcomes the final notification of the CAFE III norms by the Ministry of Power, with continued recognition of ethanol-based mobility through Carbon Neutrality Factors and Volume Derogation Factors for ethanol and flex-fuel vehicles.

The framework provides an important regulatory push to scale flex-fuel mobility, unlock greater utilisation of India’s growing ethanol capacity, reduce fossil-fuel dependence and strengthen the country’s energy security and resilience.

As India moves beyond E20, a supportive policy ecosystem can help accelerate the next phase of ethanol-led clean mobility.

India’s biofuels journey is about much more than blending ethanol. It is about building a stronger, more resilient rural economy.

At the U.S.-India Biofuels Summit 2026, Deepak Ballani, Director General, ISMA, joined the panel on “Ethanol’s Impact on Rural Economies” to highlight how India’s ethanol programme is creating a powerful link between energy security, farmer prosperity and the low-carbon transition.

From supporting timely payments to sugarcane farmers and reducing crude oil dependence, to unlocking new opportunities in FFVs, SAF and CBG, India’s next phase of biofuels growth can transform its abundant biomass into a strategic economic and energy asset.

As India looks ahead, the opportunity is to move from ethanol blending to integrated bio-refineries, where every tonne of biomass delivers greater value through ethanol, SAF, CBG, cogeneration and other bio-based products.

From Annadata to Urjadatta to Indhandatta, India’s farmers are increasingly becoming partners in powering the nation’s energy transition.
