India Resumes Wheat Exports to Bangladesh After Ban Lifted

India has lifted its wheat export ban, prompting Bangladesh to resume purchases from its western neighbour. Since the ban was eased in late August, importers have ordered more than 200,000 tonnes of Indian wheat, the first large-scale sales since 2022. The move comes as Black Sea trade disruptions, driven by repeated attacks on ports and terminals, push up global grain prices and force buyers in Asia, Africa and Europe to seek alternative suppliers.

The reopening of Indian wheat flows to Bangladesh matters less as a bilateral story than as a signal about how Black Sea risk is rerouting global grain trade toward South Asian supply. Buyers in Asia, Africa and Europe facing the same disruption now have a fresh alternative, which could soften the price impact of further port attacks — or amplify it if Indian supply proves limited. Whether Indian exports scale beyond these initial orders, and whether Black Sea disruptions persist, are the open questions.
