Spot rubber showed a mixed mood on Saturday.
The weekend session was rather inactive following a weak closing on the NMCE, but ISNR 20 made moderate gains on better demand.
In spot, sheet rubber finished unchanged at Rs 222 a kg according to traders.
The grade improved to Rs 222 (221) a kg both at Kottayam and Kochi as reported by the Rubber Board. The transactions were in a low key.
