Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select Sauté function. Add coconut oil; when hot, add onion and cook for 1 minute. Add 2 tablespoons curry powder and garlic. Mix well and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off Sauté function. Stir in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, and sugar.

Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions for 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
