Weak sentiment witnessed in domestic sugar prices
Domestic sugar prices were reported to be weaker in the major markets, falling by Rs 10 per quintal in Muzaffarnagar and Rs 5 per quintal in Kolhapur. According to local sources, demand remains extremely low despite the limited supply, as the monthly quota was lower than expected, resulting in stable prices.
The price range for S-grade sugar in Muzaffarnagar was Rs 3,830–3,890 per quintal, while in Kolhapur it was Rs 3,610–3,650. Agrimandi expects S-grade sugar prices in the Kolhapur market to range between Rs 3,600 and Rs 3,720 per quintal over the next two weeks.
