India’s sugar production to likely rise 19% in 2025-26 marketing year: ISMA

12 Nov 2025 Evaluate

The Indian Sugar & Bio-Energy Manufacturers Association (ISMA) has said that India’s sugar production is likely to rise 18.58 per cent to 30.95 million tonnes in the 2025-26 marketing year that began in October, up from 26.1 million tonnes in the previous year. The opening stocks stood at 5 million tonnes, while ethanol diversion is estimated at around 3.4 million tonnes for the current year.

In first advance estimate for the new marketing year, it said total sugar availability, including opening stocks and higher production, would reach 35.95 million tonnes in 2025-26, exceeding domestic requirement of 28.5 million tonnes. The higher output is expected on increased production in the top three sugar-producing states - Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka. Maharashtra's production is pegged at 13 million tonnes, Uttar Pradesh at 10.32 million tonnes and Karnataka at 6.35 million tonnes for 2025-26. 

ISMA noted that with a comfortable sugar balance, India is well-positioned to export nearly 2 million tonnes this season. Meanwhile, total sugarcane acreage is estimated marginally higher at 5.735 million hectares in the 2024-25 crop year (Jul y-June).
