Domestic Market
Domestic sugar prices were stable
Domestic sugar prices in the major markets of Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Uttar Pradesh were stable. However, ex-mill prices increased slightly, while resale quotes remained stable. According to market sources, demand is expected to be weak, weighing on resale prices. As sugar production decreases, ex-mill prices remain stable.
According to reports, sugar for export is selling for around Rs 44,000 per MT, with prices rising at a reasonable contract rate. London whites in the most active contract are quoted at $539 per MT, with low-quality whites priced at par until $475 per MT. M-grade sugar in Muzaffarnagar ranges between Rs 4,060 and Rs 4,120 per quintal, while S-grade sugar in Kolhapur costs between Rs 3,770 and Rs 3,840.
