RECOMMENDATIONS FOR G.O.I. Standard farm practices should be adopted Free movement of feed stock from one place to another. Allow all means of bio-fuel production / processing technologies and their open uses. 100% exemption in VAT for initial 10 years from % excise-duty exemption for initial 10 years from Processing and refining of bio-fuel should be taken as routine industrial activities. Phase wise blending should be made compulsory Bio-methanation programme for the rural community based on de- oiled cake of Jatropha and Poongamiya should be made compulsory for cooking and lighting purposes in each such community under various schemes like TSC, BRGF etc.
