Domestic Market
Domestic sugar prices continued to be stable
For the third session, sugar prices in the main domestic market have not changed despite rising as a result of limited supply and strong holiday demand. Due to a shortage of supply, prices in the main markets are trading at multi-year highs. Crushing activity has begun in Karnataka this week, which is expected to keep check on price rise from mid-November.
The price range for S-grade sugar in Kolhapur is Rs. 3,680 to Rs. 3,740 per quintal, while the price range for M-grade sugar is Rs. 3,980 to Rs. 4,020. Agrimandi.live predicts that in the upcoming two weeks, S grade sugar will trade in Kolhapur markets between Rs 3,650 and Rs 3,750.
