Sugar prices on the Vashi wholesale market ruled unchanged on Thursday as spot market was closed for Bhau Bij festival.
Domestic sugar futures prices were up by Rs 12-16 a quintal on expectation of delay in crushing due to the ongoing farmer’s agitation for increase in cane price in main producing areas of Maharashtra.
There were no arrivals – dispatches or loading – unloading in the Vashi market due to holiday.
Under tone remained slightly firm due to disturbance in supply from producing areas. Business will be normal from Friday said a wholesaler.
