Domestic sugar continue to trade stable
Domestic sugar prices in major markets were reported to be stable after a mixed session yesterday. However, with a larger monthly quota, they are likely to face more pressure in the coming days. Furthermore, demand in the major markets is expected to be low, putting pressure on prices.
In Muzaffarnagar, M-grade sugar is priced between Rs 3,770 and Rs 3,800 per quintal, while S-grade sugar is expected to cost between Rs 3,420 and Rs 3,450. Agrimandi predicts that the price of S grade sugar in the Kolhapur market will fall to between Rs 3,380 and Rs 3,460 per quintal within the next two weeks.
