Price of sugar
BHL's subsidiary, Bajaj Hindusthan Sugar and Industries Limited (BHSIL), has
four sugar plants across Uttar Pradesh at Pratappur (district Deoria), Rudauli
(district Basti), Kundarkhi (district Gonda) and Utraula (district Balrampur).
BHSIL has a total crushing capacity of 40,000 tcd. The Bajaj Hindusthan Group as
a whole, with fourteen manufacturing facilities, has an aggregate sugarcane
crushing capacity of 136,000 tcd. The Group has a distillery capacity to produce
800,000 liters of Alcohol per day.
BHL is India’s largest ethanol producer. It is the pioneer of India’s fuel ethanol
programme. BHL is currently producing 38 million litres of ethanol in a year. In
anticipation of emerging market demand, the Company has increased its ethanol
manufacturing capacity to nearly 218 million litres per year.
BHL generates 430 MW of power from the bagasse produced in its sugar mills.
After meeting its own energy needs, BHL has a surplus of 105 MW. The Company
has already begun to supply a significant part of this surplus power to the UP state
grid. BHL has now embarked upon the expansion of its power generation capacity
by 450 MW through the setting up of new coal based power plants of 90 MW each
in the vicinity of 5 of its existing sugar units. These new projects are expected to be
completed within a period of eighteen months at an aggregate project cost of
around Rs. 23 billion.
BEPL is among the very few units in the world to manufacture MDF and PB that is
completely wood-free. Its three Units, put together, turns out 210,000 cubic metres
of MDF and Particle Boards in a year. This will prevent the felling of an estimated
420,000 fully matured trees annually.
BHL recorded a net profit of Rs.1.546 million and annual turnover of Rs. 17,807
million for the year October 1, 2008 - September 30, 2009

Beet sugar has gone down from 40% in 1990 to 22% in 2006-07
The cost of sugar from cane is less than the cost of sugar from beet
This chart shows the production of sugar in India in million metric tons from the
year 1961 to 2009.
Sugar is produced in India primarily in nine major states. In 2009, the six states of
Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Tamil Nadu
produced more than 1MMT of sugar per annum each, with the three states of
Bihar, Punjab and Haryana producing less than 1 MMT of sugar. In 2009, these
states accounted for 94% of the total sugar production in India with Maharashtra
and Uttar Pradesh leading with 27% and 30% of the total production. 6 Sugar
productions have been increasing steadily but there have been periods of low
Production, due to a variety of reasons including pests and drought. Production has
been cyclical, with the typical cycle duration ranging between 4 to 6 years. The
Indian sugar production has grown at a CAGR of 6% over the last 4 decades.
DEMAND OF SUGAR IN INDIA
Sugar consumption has increased by three million tons in the past two years,
pushing up the annual domestic consumption to about 23 mn tones from only 19
mn tones in 2006-07. Consumption is growing by over 4% annually, but the
government prefers to keep tightlipped about it and pegs the annual sugar
consumption at only 21 mn tones.
This means
domestic
consumption will
surpass the
projected output (22
mn tones at present)
for the 2009-10
year, paving the
way for sugar
imports and
sharpening
domestic sugar
prices for both
industrial and retail
consumers.
Analysts have
already projected
that India will be a sugar importer from the 2010-11 sugar year. From the chart
above, we can see the demand for the sugar in the coming year.
Lower carryover stocks and the projected low sugarcane output projected for 2010-
11 could spell high domestic sugar prices.
Sugar prices are among the most sensitive of election issues and the fact that the
domestic prices have shot up from around Rs 20/kg in the retail market earlier this
year to around Rs 30/kg now has already forced the Centre to pull out all stops to
boost open market availability and drag down or at least hold prices.
Ironically, most recent studies show that sugar consumption has gone up
significantly on account of industry (such as ice creams, soft drinks, pastries,
chocolates and the pharmacy sector) and not on account of domestic consumption
by the economically weaker sections for whom the government commands 10% of
the production by mills for levy sugar.
Chapter3
There are mainly four major factor which effect the demand of the sugar in
India
1. Social factor
2. Economic factor
3. Government policies
4. Price
SOCIAL FACTOR
Sugar industry is the important
aspect in development of any
country. It provides income
opprtunity, employment, resources
for other industries such as ice
cream, bakery and other sugar
related business. Further many
sugar industries have established
school, colleges, medical facilities,
for the benefit of the peoples. BHL
have diversified its business into many fields also like distilleries, organic plants,
chemical plant and board factories.BHL also generates electricities. But there are
some social issues which effect the demand of the product in the market such as
a. Eating habbits: - eating habbits fo every person mostly lies that in which
society the are living. People used to their climate and have their foood as
per their behaviuoral changes by their family, friends and other related
persons. In india there are many festivals celebarated all along the year.
People celebrate their festival by preparing sweets or by buying it from the
market. This makes them to consume large amount of sugar each year and
due to which demand of the sugar incraeses. There is some special offer
given to every wholeseller from BHL for festivals in the price of the sugar.
ECONOMIC FACTOR
Size of the sector:- Size of the sector is another factor which makes demand of the
sugar high or low. BHL is the leading manufacturer of sugar in india. Whereas
there are other manufacturer also. The demand of the sugar is much higher than the
production which is done by the sugar manufacturing sectors.
in this figure we can see the per capita income spend by different consumers of
consumption of sugar, and the figure below shows the growth of consumption in
india with comapison to the increase in the price.
GOVERNMENT POLICY
For the demand of the sugar government policy plays an important role.
Government sets the price for the sugar and it takes reserve also. Government sets
some rules and regulations also due to which demand and supply of the sugar
affect. The major policy of the government which makes the demand and supply of
the change in the economy are

PRICE OF SUGAR
Recognizing the fact that price of the sugar is the most important variable of
sugar’s demand. If other things being constant, then price of sugar play an
important factor. As per the demand of the law states that other things remain
constant, when the price of the commodity rises, the demand of the commodity falls
and when the price of the commodity falls, the demand for the commodity rises. In
other words, demand for a product is inversely proportional to its price thus
demand function can be stated for the sugar can be illustrated as
Environmental factor: -
Transportation
Transportation is another factor which affects the price of the product and
ultimately becomes a deciding factor in the demand for the product.
Like this there are many factors which effect the production finally demand
of the product.
