A mixed trend persisted for almost all varieties at the Kochi Tea auction. In sale no 44, the quantity on offer in CTC dust grades was 11,34,500 kg.
The market for good liquoring varieties and popular marks were firm to dearer. However, plainer and low-priced varieties were steady to firm and occasionally dearer. A better enquiry was noticed from exporters on medium and plainer teas and the upcountry demand was fair. The quantity on offer in orthodox grades was 6,500 kg and the market moved up in value following enquiry from exporters.
In the best CTC dusts, PD grades quoted Rs 99/118, RD varieties fetched Rs 106/143, SRD ruled at Rs 115/150 and SFD stood at Rs 120/160.
The quantity on offer in orthodox leaf grades was 1,56,000 kg. The market for Nilgiri varieties were steady to dearer, following quality.
Medium, clean, black, well-made, bolder brokens and whole leaf was fully firm. The quantity on offer in CTC grades was 85,500 kg. sajeevkumar.v@thehindu.co.in
