The government is considering lifting the suspension on futures trading for oil, oilseeds, and pulses, following pressure from the National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX). While discussions are ongoing, the ban on paddy and wheat futures is expected to remain. The NCDEX is advocating for the resumption of trading, citing the need for market maturity and reduced reliance on international price signals, as India imports a significant portion of its edible oil.

A center-left alliance is pushing for a re-evaluation of the mixed financing solution, which could impact future pension funding strategies.
