Domestic Market
Sugar prices reported weak
Domestic sugar prices in the major markets were reported to be weak overall. Prices in Muzaffarnagar and Kolhapur have dropped by Rs.10 per quintal. At current prices, demand is reportedly low, weighing on prices; however, higher quotas than the previous year are said to be keeping prices in check.
Meanwhile, the Indian monsoon has swept across Karnataka, except for parts of Bidar and southern Maharashtra. Conditions are favourable for future movement, with Western Maharashtra expected to be covered by June 10.
In Muzaffarnagar, M-grade sugar costs between Rs 3,850-3,870 per quintal, while in Kolhapur, S-grade sugar costs between Rs 3,590-3,620. Agrimandi forecasts that the price of S grade sugar in the Kolhapur market will fall in the next two weeks to between Rs 3,540 and Rs 3,660 per quintal.
