INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
From the last two years, India has become the world’s largest producer of sugar, as Brazil has diverted more of its production to produce ethanol. Therefore, Indian Sugar producers are getting better prices for their products. The sugar sector follows a sugar season cycle from October to September of next year.
According to the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA), around 502 sugar mills have started their operations from 1st October 2020 to 28th February 2021. They altogether produced 23.37 million tonnes of sugar as of 28th February 2021. From October 2020 to mid-February 2021, sugar production in India increased by 22.9% to 20.9 million tonnes on account of 74% and 26.9% production growth in Maharashtra and Karnataka, respectively, backed by increased sugarcane area, better yields among others. Sugar output in India is expected to increase by 11.7% to 32 million tonnes during the Sugar Year 2020-21 (October 2020 -September 2021) on account of higher production in Maharashtra and Karnataka.
Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), on 16 December 2020, approved assistance of about Rs. 3,500 crore towards sugar export for the sugar season 2020-21 to curtail the sugar glut situation in India and to reduce the quantum of sugarcane arrears owed by the sugar industry. For Sugar Year 2021, India is likely to export 5.50 million tonnes of sugar. In fact, within just two months, companies have already exported 4.80 million tonnes of sugar.
The sugar prices in the domestic market are unlikely to witness any major improvement due to huge carry-over stocks of about 10.6 million tonnes and an expected 10.2% growth in production to 32 million tonnes in the current sugar year 2020-21. Thus the prices are expected to remain largely range-bound only backed by an MSP of Rs.31 per kg. Domestic prices are unlikely to increase unless sugar MSP is hiked by the government.
The global sugar market to exhibit stable growth during 2020-2025. Over the next ten years, global sugar production is projected to expand by 14%, from 178 Mt in the base period (September 2016 to October 2019) to 207 Mt in 2028, with 85% of the projected increase originating in developing countries.
