Delivery mechanism at Electronic Spot Market
Development of electronic market in India : NSEL
1) Electronic market for farm produce – Farmers Contract &
Traders contract
2) Electronic Market for Non Agri commodities- Bullion and other
metals
3) Electronic Auction platform - Government companies, PSUs,
Farmers co operatives as well as corporates
4) e-Series products - Retail investors for Investment purpose
5) Storage and warehouse receipt finance
1. Electronic market for Farm Produce
Created national level institutionalized, electronic, transparent
spot exchange to enable the farmers to sell their produce directly
to end users, processors and exporters without any intermediary.
Price is quoted on ex-warehouse / location basis, transactions
are executed through competitive bidding and farmers are able
to sell at the highest price quoted by the buyers.
NSEL is responsible for collection of payment from buyers by
electronically debiting their accounts and payment to farmers.
National Spot Exchange: Farmers’ contract
FOW Awards for Innovation 2010: Exchanges
National Spot Exchange - The winner of Best innovation by anexchange in the field of product design - South and Southeast Asiaand Australasia
The system enables farmers in remote regions to sell their products on an
electronic market and collect their money on the same day, giving them the same
price assurance mechanisms as large corporate growers enjoy.
Sophisticated pricing for the grassroots farmer
Case Study I: Gujarat Experience with castor seed
• In order to help the farmers to access the electronic spot market, NSEL has
implemented the following farmer-friendly conditions:
– Trading lot is 1 bag (75 Kg) and multiple thereof.
– There is no transaction fee, brokerage, quality certification charges ordelivery charges payable by the farmer.
– Weighing and quality certification is done by Exchange officials without anyinterference by the traders. This ensures an impartial and transparentsystem.
– Compared to 2.5 % commission payable in the physical market in APMC, thetotal cost of transaction in NSEL is only Rs. 0.5 %. Hence, there is a directsaving of 2 % in cost of intermediation.
– Prices discovered on National Spot Exchange are always higher than mandisprice by at least 1.5 to 2.5 %.
Price Comparison
Case Study II : Pledge Loan Scheme in castor and Soybean
• NSEL has empowered farmers by helping them avail and access
institutional credit against pledge of commodity.
• In absence of any institutional credit mechanism, farmer tends to sell
the commodity soon after harvest.
• Generally, commodity price remains low during harvesting time and
tend to increase during off season.
• Extending credit facilities to enable them to realize higher prices during
off-season, which helps them to escape distress sell.
Process : Enabling farmers with institutional credit
Pledge Loan Scheme through IFMR in castor seed:
FMR, an NGO, in association with NSEL offered pledge loan to farmers in
the state of Gujarat against castor seed. Farmers deposited castor seed in
the NSEL warehouse and IFMR sanctioned and disbursed the loan to
farmers at 8.5% interest. Farmers, who availed the loan later sold the stock
at NSEL at higher price, repaid the loan along with interest.
Pledge loan scheme a joint effort by NSEL and MSAMB in Soybean:
A farmer desirous to avail loan brings their commodity to local PACS rural godown
approved by Maharashtra State Agriculture Marketing Board, which is accredited by
NSEL. At godown, commodity is weighed and checked for quality. After that the local
PACS issue storage receipt in favour of farmers. Farmer takes the receipt with them
and approach empanelled banks for availing the loan. NSEL has implemented this
project in Chakur and Kharola taluka of district Latur in Maharashtra.

3. Spot Exchange for Govt PSUs, Farmers co-operatives
Government Agencies utilizing the Spot exchange for sale of commodities
Case Study I: HAFED experience
Commodity Price quote through physical tender
Price quote through Electronic Auction
Profit
Basmati Paddy Rs. 2100 per quintal Rs. 2160.70 per quintal Rs 60 per quintal
Bajra Rs. 980 per quintal Rs. 1010 per quintal Rs. 30 per quintal
Hafed has sold about 3830 MT of Basmati paddy and 9910 MT of Bajra on National Spot Exchange (NSEL) Platform.
Price realization on NSEL platform has been significantly higher compared to physicaltender and as a result, Hafed made a profit of Rs. 58.31 lakh through higher pricerealization for grains by using NSEL platform.
Case Study II: Sale of Wheat by FCI under OMSS
FCI gave opportunity to NSEL for conducting e auction of wheat in the month of March
2010.
Signed an agreement and executed the entire process within a week
We have auctioned around 91470 MT in Delhi on behalf of FCI under this scheme. (In
value terms Rs. 114.70 crores)
Delivery and settlement was handled smoothly as per OMSS norms.
Better price realization, as large number of buyers is connected to the system submitting
their bids electronically.
Faster settlement, delivery and payment, as trade confirmation is done on the same day,
while payment is realized next day.
This is just a pilot project at 1 location. Volume can be phenomenal, once it is replicated
in the entire country, which is under active consideration.
Case Study III: Corporates conducting auction through NSEL
Silver: Hindustan Zinc:
– Largest producer of Silver in India
– 75 % of its Silver is sold through NSEL
Imported Pulses: LMJ international
– A leading Commodity trading houses
– Conducts sell of imported pulses through NSEL
Case Study IV: NAFED experience
• During 2009, Nafed sold 8.77 lac bales of cotton through NSEL worth around Rs. 873 crores
• Its average price realization has been higher compared to physical tender
• Based on the experience of Nafed, most of the PSUs engaged in importing pulses such as MMTC, PEC, Nafed, etc. have started using our platform to auction imported pulses
• Such auctions are conducted on daily basis in smaller lots.
• As a result, the end users are able to buy pulses directly through NSEL
• This has reduced cost of intermediation, improved price relation by the PSUs and enabled small mills to procure directly at a lower price
