Below the Quote on Sugar sector outlook from Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.

 

"Restrictions on the use of sugar juice for ethanol production stems primarily from the concerns regarding sugar crops this year in Maharashtra and Karnataka which experienced uneven rains. Since sugar price can be a sensitive issue during election time, it would be unrealistic to expect any relaxation in this measure till the elections are over. This is certainly a negative from the perspective of sugar companies which have invested heavily in producing ethanol. The sugar stocks, particularly the ethanol-oriented ones, are likely to remain under pressure for some time."
