# Sugar Standards for each season are prepared and supplied by

Bureau of Sugar Standards, National Sugar Institute, Kanpur tosugar factories and other users to facilitate quality control, markingand marketing of sugar. To facilitate easy procurement, thestandards can be procured on-line.

# New set of sugar standards comprising 7 grades (L-31 & 30, M-31& 30, S-31 & 30, SS-31) was prepared and sale commenced from


& 30, S-31 & 30, SS-31) was prepared and sale commenced from01.10.2015.

To facilitate marketing of refined and other specialsugars being produced by the sugar factories in India,NSI has taken up the task of preparation ofspecifications and grades of various type of sugars.

* Keeping in view, production of Refined Sugar pickingup in the country, the institute through a sectionalcommittee (FAD-2) of Bureau of Indian Standards hasformulated standard grades for Refined Sugar also.

* Formulation of specifications for Organic Sugar andDemerara Sugar has also been taken up.
