Mobile phones, laptops and 2 other electronic products were included in the price list
According to the economic correspondent of Fars News Agency, the plan to insert the producer price on the goods was implemented by the order of the Minister of Industry, Mines and Trade in order to make the prices of various goods transparent from December 18 last year.
According to the plan, manufacturers were required to record the cost of goods produced on a variety of goods, and suppliers and sellers in chain stores or guild units were required to enter the consumer price based on profits set by the Ministry. صمتare.
Although After some time, after examining the drawbacks of the mentioned plan, it was decided that in addition to inserting the producer price, the producers should also enter the consumer price on the product, and this issue was implemented from March 7, 2010.
This plan, which aims to prevent overselling and control prices, is defined in 6 stages, of which 4 stages have been implemented so far and the fifth stage will be implemented from tomorrow, May 1, 1401. At each stage of the transparent purchase plan, a number of items were added to the plan and included in the price, but in the fifth stage of the plan, all goods are included in the price plan, while in this stage, some commodity groups are excluded.
Therefore, regarding the details of the implementation of the fifth stage of the “transparent purchase” plan, or the same as the price on the product, an interview with Mohsen Hossein Louis Director General of Supervision of Public Services, Distribution and Economic Networks of the Ministry صمت Done as you read below.
Fars: So far, 4 stages of the “transparent purchase” plan, including the producer and consumer prices, have been implemented. What measures have been taken in these 4 stages?
Hossein Louis: So far, 16,000 items have been included in the design, and therefore the price has been entered on 16,000 items. We are constantly checking for the last 5 months and we do not allow price fluctuations to occur outside the normal and normal range.
* Price information of 84 thousand items is available
In general, I must say that it has never been the case that we have the prices of all goods in our hands and we can review the prices. How expensive or cheap the product becomes and we can easily monitor price fluctuations.
Fars: What are the results of this monitoring and having information on the prices of thousands of items?
Hossein Louis: This observation has caused the price fluctuation of those goods that have been included in the transparent purchase plan to decrease sharply from December last year onwards. Meanwhile, the price of crude oil has risen, as has the price of chemical and petrochemical products, which supply raw materials for plastic bottles and packaging. I mean, although the price of packaging materials made from petrochemical products has increased, the price fluctuation of the goods that should be stored in these packages and offered with these packages has been low, in other words, very small.
* Fars: Since the implementation of the plan, how many goods have decreased in price and how many goods have increased in price?
Hossein Louis: Since the implementation of the transparent purchase plan, which was implemented in late December last year, the total price of 8,500 items has decreased and the price of about 4,000 items has been either fixed or fluctuated by one to two percent.
* Fars: A few days ago, the head of the protection organization announced that in the fifth phase of the transparent purchase plan, which will be implemented from May 1, it will be necessary to enter the producer price and consumer price on the goods, while the producer price and consumption Has been implemented since March 7, last year. Please explain in this regard.
Hossein Louis: Yes, from March 7, last year, according to the studies conducted on how to implement the plan and the abuses committed by some suppliers of goods, it was approved to prevent consumer rights in addition to the producer price, the consumer price on Insert the goods, so inserting the producer and consumer prices on the goods is not a new action, but its implementation will be more complete.
* Enter the producer and consumer prices for all goods except exceptional goods
Fars: In the fifth stage, what goods are included in the prices of consumers and producers? Are basic goods still exempt from the plan?
Hossein Louis: All goods, except 13 commodity groups and goods that can not be priced, such as basic and trade goods, are included in the consumer and producer price inclusion plan. So with the exception of 13 commodity groups, the rest of the commodities are in the fifth stage implementation of The plan means that they will be included in the price list from the first of May.
برین Basis of pharmaceutical and medical items, raw materials and intermediate goods not supplied to the final consumer, all kinds of clothes, fabrics and clothes, all kinds of gold, jewelry and ornaments, all kinds of handicrafts, unpackaged agricultural products, stock exchange products and goods offered in Stock, all kinds of parts, tools and supplies UnboundPackaging, types of unpackaged building materials, products that can not be packaged, types of stationery that can not be packaged, meat, chicken, eggs, sugar, rice, trade goods that are offered at the production site, such as soup, halim, confectionery, etc. They do not include producer and consumer prices.
Items such as unpackable building materials can not be priced at all, and items such as ash and halim whose price is in the form of a price table and do not need to enter the producer price because their producer and consumer prices are the same.
To insert prices on pharmaceutical items and basic goods with the Ministries of Health and Agricultural Jihad saidوگوهای Done, the entry of prices on these goods requires requirements.
* Imported goods were included in the importer’s price
Fars: Are imported goods also included in the price list? If so, please explain how to implement it?
Hossein Louis: Prior to the transparent purchase plan, many commodities were not priced, for example, capital goods were not priced at all.
In addition, some goods, such as imported goods such as mobile phones, TabletLaptops, computers, A4 paper packages, no prices were listed on the goods. Therefore, in the fifth stage, a transparent purchase plan was set to include the same price on imported goods. That is, the importer price and the consumer price are listed on these goods, so in this type of goods, instead of the producer price, the importer price is listed, and these goods, like other goods, are also included in the consumer price.
Therefore, from the beginning of May 1401, all manufactured goods, except for exceptional cases, are included in the producer and consumer prices, and all imported goods, except for exceptional cases, are included in the importer and consumer prices.
Fars: How is the implementation of this project monitored and how will violations in this field be dealt with?
Hossein Louis: We have inspectors in 31 provinces for the optimal implementation of the transparent procurement plan, and inspectors monitor various cases and follow up on any violations. In addition, if people see any violations, they can report their complaints to follow up through 124.
Fars: One of the problems in inserting consumer prices was the registration of unconventional consumer prices by manufacturers, which caused a large profit margin for chain stores, so one of the goals of eliminating the insertion of consumer prices is the same issue by officials. Ministry صمت But given that consumer prices are now being re-introduced on goods, what monitoring is being done to prevent these abuses? Is there a tool at the disposal of the Ministry to prevent abuses? صمت Is?
Hossein Louis: Prices are monitored in several stages, certainly if it was supposed to be set according to the wishes of the producer and importer, we would not see this reduction in prices now, given the continuous monitoring of producer prices in recent months. We have a limited price for all goods, so due to this price range, producers are allowed to enter the consumer price on the product, and therefore the opportunity for abuse is eliminated.
For example, in the early days of this plan, beverage producers set the beverage producer price at 11,700 tomans, but later the producer price of this product was reduced to 9,700 tomans, which was due to the continuous monitoring and monitoring of prices.
During the tea consumer price session yesterday, Medicine جاتCakes, cookies, dairy Check The real price has been calculated and we have informed the producers about this price and based on that they can price the product.
So one of the goals in registering unconventional prices on goods was to gain more profit margins in the distribution network, but now that we have set a floor for the consumer and producer prices, real price registration is no longer attractive to manufacturers because of the competitive market of customers. They lose themselves.
Fars: One of the problems of the people is the increase in the prices of basic goods such as rice and meat. What measures have been taken to control the prices of these products, which are also essential and essential needs of the people?
Hossein Louis: According to the parliament and the law of abstraction, the Ministry of Jihad Agriculture is responsible for regulating the market of basic goods, so our intervention as a ministry صمت To control the price of these products and regulate the market, it interferes with the work of the Ministry of Jihad Agriculture, while we are not allowed to do so by law, but if the Ministry of Jihad Agriculture asks us for help, we are 100% ready to help them. But as I said, according to the law of the ministry صمت It does not interfere in the affairs of the Ministry of Jihad for Agriculture.
* Rising prices are related to basic goods
Fars: In any case, contrary to what you say about the reduction of prices, people are not very satisfied with the reduction of prices, and do not feel the reduction of prices, explain in this case as well.
Hossein Louis: This dissatisfaction is due to the fact that people are seeing an increase in the prices of goods such as rice, meat, poultry, eggs, rice and fruit, while the control and regulation of the market for these goods, as I mentioned, does not belong to the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade. It is the responsibility of the Ministry of Jihad for Agriculture, so given that people are more focused on the price of such basic goods, they generally believe that all kinds of goods have become more expensive. But the fact is that people do not pay enough attention to the price of other items.
Fars: Your emphasis is that the basic goods whose prices are controlled and controlled by the Ministry of Jihad have become more expensive, and the goods under the supervision of the Ministry have become more expensive. صمت There has been no increase in price or a slight price fluctuation, but in the last few days, diapers, the price of which is incidentally controlled by the Ministry. صمت Has become so expensive in some items related to the Ministry صمت We have also seen an increase in prices, in this case, explain why?
HosseinLouis: Yes, controlling and monitoring the price of this product before the products, ie cellulose products, is the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade, so immediately after seeing the increase in the price of diapers by a manufacturing company, necessary measures were taken and necessary follow-ups were done.
A diaper company located in Saveh has increased the price of its products without obtaining the necessary licenses, so the relevant officials in the ministry صمت During their investigations, they prepared and sent expensive sales files to this company, and based on this, the company is obliged to correct the prices, and if this action is not taken, more confrontations will be made with this manufacturing company to deal with expensive sales, for example, if Continuation of the high prices of these companies, no store will have the right to supply the products of the company related to this company, because otherwise the supply of products that have become more expensive will be a participation in the high prices for the supply stores.
