ChiniMandi, Mumbai: 4th May 2023
Domestic Market
Steady sentiment was witnessed in major markets
Domestic sugar prices remained stable due to strong demand after falling for three to four sessions. Despite higher monthly quota allocations, good demand in the spot markets are supporting prices. Moreover, drastic reductions in production are also supporting the prices.
According to Agrimandi.live, prices are expected to trade higher with a limited downside due to lower supply in the coming days. More rise is anticipated in the Kolhapur market than in Muzaffarnagar, and the spread between these markets is likely to narrow in the coming days.
