Domestic sugar were reported stable
Domestic sugar prices in major markets were reported to be stable after a mixed session yesterday. However, with a higher monthly quota, they are expected to face continued pressure in the coming days. Furthermore, demand is expected to be weak in the major markets, putting pressure on prices.
In Muzaffarnagar, M-grade sugar costs between Rs 3,770 and Rs 3,800 per quintal, while S-grade sugar is expected to cost between Rs 3,420 and Rs 3,450. Agrimandi anticipates that the price of S grade sugar in the Kolhapur market will fall to between Rs 3,380 and Rs 3,460 per quintal within the next two weeks.
