Melting scrap prices today shot up by around INR 500-600/t in major locations in India on account of improved sponge iron and semi-finished steel prices. The same in the Southern region remained supported as anticipated by SteelMint. In the Northern region, limited transactions were witnessed owing to nationwide protests. Further, in the Western region, trade partners reported some shortage of scrap supply in the market which resulted in price hike.
