Domestic Market
Domestic sugar prices reported to be stable
Domestic sugar prices in major markets were said to be stable. At higher price points, demand is deemed average. Furthermore, falling global prices, which are increasing Indian sugar disparity in global markets, and higher sugar stocks with mills are expected to keep prices under control. However, if the food ministry doesn’t allocate additional quotas, we may see another sharp rise in the coming days.
In Kolhapur, the price range for S-grade sugar was Rs 3,670 to 3,710 per quintal, while in Muzaffarnagar it was Rs 3,950 to 4,000. Agrimandi anticipates that the price of S grade sugar in the Kolhapur market will range between Rs 3,600 and Rs 3,750 per quintal over the next two weeks.
