Domestic sugar prices remained weak
Domestic sugar prices remained low in major markets due to insufficient demand at higher prices. Prices dropped by Rs 10 per quintal in Uttar Pradesh and Rs 5 per quintal in Maharashtra. According to local sources, demand is exceedingly low, prompting huge cost increases.
The price range for S-grade sugar in Muzaffarnagar was Rs 3,870-3,920 per quintal, while in Kolhapur it was Rs 3,625–3,660. Agrimandi forecasts that the price of S-grade sugar in the Kolhapur market will vary between Rs 3,600 and Rs 3,750 per quintal over the next two weeks.
