 "Sugar shares in focus; Shree Renuka surges 20%")
Shares of sugar companies were in focus with Shree Renuka Sugars, Bajaj Hindustan, Ugar Sugar Works, Simbhaoli Sugars and Sakthi Sugar rallying more than 10% in an otherwise range-bound market.
According to Business Standard report the central government is considering steps to protect the industry and farmers’ realizations as sugar production in India is estimated to go up 25-30% in the sugar year 2017-18.
“These include a rise in the import duty from the present 40%, a higher ethanol price for supplying to oil marketing companies (OMCs) and reviewing the goods and services tax (GST) rates for ethanol and molasses. The import duty rise could come anytime and be up to 20% higher, to ensure no more than the 500,000 tonnes of permitted import takes place,” added report. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL REPORT.
