Depends which part of India - mainly mellifera in North and cerana in the 
South.  Honey from stingless bees (Trigona) is very highly valued (6 times 
the price - it is 'Ayurvedic')), but there is so little that I doubt much 
could be exported.

The EU ignores its own rather illogical definition - honey from cerana has 
been imported for a long time.
