Sugar prices rebounded thanks to buying by speculative funds, which entered the market in anticipation of increased imports by India.

On LIFFE, the price of a tonne of white sugar for August stood at $217.50 on Friday from $216.80 a week earlier.

On the CSCE in New York, a pound of unrefined sugar for July delivery stood at 6.85 cents on Friday from 6.75 cents on Thursday of the previous week.
