Domestic Market
Domestic sugar prices stable, subdued demand
Sugar prices have remained stable in major domestic markets due to low demand at current prices. Demand is reported to be very low, but tender prices continue to remain at higher levels. In Kolhapur, S-grade sugar is priced between Rs 3,500 and Rs 3,540, while M-grade sugar in Uttar Pradesh is priced between Rs 3,660 and Rs 3,700.
Stockists are not active because they are afraid of government intervention if prices rally, as supply is limited and there are rumors of smuggling to Bangladesh and Nepal.
According to AgriMandi.live, the price of S grade is expected to trade in the Kolhapur markets between Rs 3,500 and Rs 3,580 per quintal in the near future.
