Sugar prices drifted by Rs 45 per quintal at the wholesale market in the national capital today following increased supplies from mills amid scattered demand at current levels.
Marketmen said ample stocks following supply pressure from mills mainly pulled down sweetener prices but scattered buying by stockists and bulk consumers due to ongoing wedding season, restricted losses.
