Domestic Market
Domestic sugar prices continue to trade weak
After a sharp rise, domestic sugar prices in major markets appear to be weak for the second session. Prices have fallen by Rs 10-20 per quintal, with Karnataka and Maharashtra down by Rs 10 and Uttar Pradesh by Rs 20-25.
Sugar exports typically range between Rs 42,000 and Rs 44,000 per MT, with low-quality whites fetching up to $475 per MT. Although domestic prices are gradually increasing, the weakening INR ensures export parity. There have been rumors that some export contracts were signed for Rs 46,000 per MT.
S-grade sugar in Kolhapur costs between Rs 3,740 and 3,800 per quintal, whereas M-grade sugar in Muzaffarnagar costs between Rs 4,040 and 4,100. Prices are expected to stay high in the coming days.
