Commodity Research

Sugar & Natural Rubber

India being one of the top 3 sugar producing regions in the world along with Brazil and China, we track this essential commodity. Based in the India geography which is the major price driver in the sugar market both due to production vagaries and government policy changes, we have a competitive edge while tracking the sugar market.

Our analysis cover the biggest players viz; Brazil, China, India and also monitor the markets of Vietnam & Mauritius. We regularly deliver our research papers at various industry forums like the Indian Sugar Summit etc.

Our experts continuously monitor developments in the industry, both the supply and demand factors and legislative developments viz; quotas; licenses etc.

As a result we are considered the industry's benchmark for research and our clients who are FMCG giants are a testimony to this fact.

Natural Rubber forms a vital input material for clients who are into automobile manufacturing; our reports are very useful for clients who are into physical procurement emphasizing the need to protect their bottom line. We address both buy side as well as sell side risk and assist our clients in using the financial markets to surpass the price risk arising from the volatile nature of the commodity.
