The bulb could bring more tears to consumers in the days ahead, trade sources said, as the prices are likely to hit new highs with the crop sown in the late kharif season in the key producing regions of Maharashtra being impacted by the extended monsoons.

As prices started touching Rs.100 a kg, the Centre stepped in to quickly relax the fumigation and phytosanitary norms for imports of the bulb, expected from countries such as Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran and Turkey.
