India caps sugar dealers’ stockholding at 1,000 quintals for Oct. 15–Nov. 30 festive-season period

AI Market Summary
India tightened sugar dealer stockholding limits to 1,000 quintals (2,000 in Kolkata metro and Assam) for Oct 15–Nov 30 to curb hoarding and smooth festival-season supply. With retail prices down ~15% from August peaks and ex-mill prices down ~28% and stabilizing recently, the measure signals active price-management and may dampen near-term food inflation risks locally, with limited broader market spillover.
