India: Melting scrap prices rise by INR 1,000/t ($13)

Melting scrap prices rallied on prevailing robust sentiments in the market backed by a number of factors:

  • Increasing substitute (sponge iron) prices supported by high coal prices.
  • Moderate semi-finished steel and finished steel transactions supporting price hike.
  • Rising global scrap offers and limited transactions prompting domestic sellers to raise offers.

Near-term prices may remain supported, trade channels reported.
