"The year under review was phenomenal and proved to be an inflection point for India's sugar industry, especially for some sugar companies in Uttar Pradesh. The improvement was on account of a sustained stability in sugar realisations after years of price weakness, complimented by improvement in recovery," Dwarikesh Sugar Chief Financial Officer Vijay S Banka said.
