In addition, for the Indian market, FPC lowered PVC prices by USD60 per tonne to USD900 per tonne, CFR India. The above discount is also valid here.
Discounts on April volumes are likely to spur buying activity amid sluggish demand in India and China.
According to ICIS-MRC’s Price Review , in Russia a wave of active purchases of PVC by local processors has passed, some manufacturers have already closed all their deals in March deliveries. The demand for PVC from the domestic market has grown, and some manufacturers have chosen to reduce export volumes. Since the beginning of the year, Russian resin has been constantly increasing in price, and manufacturers do not rule out further price increases for the domestic market in April. In isolated cases, prices in March reached a record level in the last 15 months.
