Domestic prices continue to be stable
Sugar prices in domestic markets remained stable today. Demand was reported to be strong in the previous two days, but little was reported today. Lower rainfall activity over major cane growing regions, combined with lower supply, is supporting spot market prices.
Prices in Kolhapur were reported to be between Rs 3,540 and Rs 3,560 per quintal, while prices in Muzaffarnagar were reported to be between Rs 3,710 and Rs 3,750.
