Arabica plantation grades were quoted Rs 50-250 per 50 kg, higher compared with the last auction, while robusta parchment was higher by Rs 100 per 50 kg. Coffee exports were almost steady at 197,304 tonnes from October 1 to

India's state-run Coffee Board has cut the country's coffee output estimate to 315,500 tonnes for the crop year to September 2013, down three per cent from an earlier projection.
