Abstract: The paper aims to study whether the non-alignment between sugar and sugarcane prices creates cyclicality in the Indian sugar sector. This paper found no non-alignment between sugar and sugarcane prices in India. Thus, the non-alignment between sugar and sugarcane prices cannot create the cycle. One need a better explanation for the cyclicality and, therefore, a better solution. Otherwise, it will affect the livelihood of a large number of people in India. © 2023 Indian Society of Agricultural Economics. All rights reserved.
