Domestic Market
Steady to weak sentiment witnessed in domestic sugar prices
Domestic sugar prices in the major markets were reported to be stable to weak. Prices have fallen by Rs 10-20 per quintal across the major markets of Uttar Pradesh due to subdued demand. However, steady sentiment is witnessed in Maharashtra and Karnataka.
IMD has released the July month forecast on 30th June. As per the update, rains are expected to remain at 106% above normal in most of the regions with exception of North East and extreme Southern India.
Meanwhile, rainfall activity especially over Marathwada regions of Maharashtra was scanty with a 43% deficit so far in June. This should raise a concern on the standing crop as the forecast also indicates dry weather till July mid.
M-grade sugar costs between Rs 3,890 and Rs 3,960 per quintal in Muzaffarnagar, whereas S-grade sugar costs between Rs 3,750 and Rs 3,790 in Kolhapur.
