Sugar exports to pick up only when global prices rise: Industry In this article, Tarun Sawhney (Vice-Chairman & MD, Triveni Engineering) says exports will start increasing once local and global sugar prices reach parity. He also notes that domestic sugar stocks are building up because not enough sugar is being diverted for ethanol production.
Govt may allow sugar exports as surplus builds on lower ethanol diversion The government is considering permitting sugar exports in the 2025-26 season due to a surplus, driven by lower-than-expected ethanol diversion. According to this, global prices for refined sugar are weaker, but there may be “export parity” for raw sugar.
Sugar output to rise 18% in 2025–26: ISMAThe Indian Sugar & Bio-Energy Manufacturers Association (ISMA) projects sugar production to increase significantly in 2025‑26, which could support higher exports. Tarun Sawhney emphasizes that the government should revise the minimum selling price (MSP) of sugar to help mills deal with this surge.
Allowing around 1–2 million tonnes of sugar exports can significantly benefit Indian producers: Tarun Sawhney - Sawhney argues that exports in the range of 1–2 million tonnes would be very beneficial for Indian sugar mills, especially given build-up in stocks.
