<h1>Wheat stock limits tightened: new caps and mandatory registration to curb hoarding and stabilize consumer prices</h1> The Government revised wheat holding caps for traders, wholesalers, retailers, big chain retailers and processors, imposed mandatory registration and weekly stock reporting on the wheat stock limit portal, and required entities exceeding prescribed limits to reduce stocks within a specified cure period. Non-registration, failure to update stock positions, or breach of limits will invite punitive action under the Essential Commodities Act, 1955, with the measures applied nationwide to support price stability and prevent hoarding.
