Domestic sugar prices remain weak
Domestic sugar prices remained low in the key centers due to limited demand at higher prices. Prices declined by Rs 10 per quintal in Maharashtra and Rs 40 per quintal in Uttar Pradesh. According to local sources, demand is extremely low, causing costs to rise significantly.
The price range for S-grade sugar in Muzaffarnagar was Rs 3,890-3,940 per quintal, while in Kolhapur it was Rs 3,630–3,670. Over the next two weeks, Agrimandi expects the price of S- grade sugar in the Kolhapur market to range between Rs 3,600 and Rs 3,750 per quintal.
