Dominated by smallholder farmers, who account for nearly 99 per cent of holdings and 70 per cent of the country's overall production, coffee cultivation stands as a vital pillar of India's rural economy. The GST rate cuts and free trade agreements, including the India–UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), have further expanded opportunities for value-added coffee exports.
Over the past four years, exports have consistently exceeded $1 billion, reaching a record $1.8 billion in FY25, a 40 per cent increase from $1.29 billion the previous year. Despite global geopolitical challenges, exports during April–September 2025 stood at $1.07 billion, registering a 15.5 per cent increase over the same period in 2024.
The reduction of GST from 18 per cent to 5 per cent on coffee extracts, essences is expected to lower retail prices by 11–12 per cent, encourage domestic consumption, and enhance profitability for small processors, the statement said.
