Sunlight is neither a raw material nor a product. It is a natural phenomenon.
Light energy is indeed considered to be a raw material. This is because it does not need to be altered by humans to be used.
"A raw material"? It is part of the process of photosynthesis though.
It is the energy source. CO2 and water are the raw materials
the light energy in photosynthesis is called raw material! :)

Photosynthesis involves the transformation of light energy into chemical energy.
oxygen and sugar
It is true that photosynthesis is the process of putting together of carbohydrates by using light energy. The light energy from the sun is what will create chemical energy to be used in photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis requires water, carbon dioxide, chlorophyll, and light. Glucose is an end product used as energy but it is not used during photosynthesis.

Carbon dioxide + Water --light energy--> Glucose + Oxygen
The product of photosynthesis is Glucose and O2 is a byproduct.
Photosynthesis involves the transformation of light energy into chemical energy.
photosynthesis converts the light energy from the sun into chemical energy for use by the cell.
Light energy is essential in photosynthesis.

The light from the sun provides the energy source that is required to initiate photosynthesis. Light is made up of photons which are "packets" of energy, and the energy from these packets excite the electrons on the plant's pigments. There are special proteins in the chloroplasts that utilize this energy and end up storing the energy in glucose (the main product of photosynthesis).
Photosynthesis requires water, carbon dioxide, chlorophyll, and light. Glucose is an end product used as energy but it is not used during photosynthesis.
Oxygen is released as a by product of photosynthesis.
