KOTTAYAM, OCT. 7:
Spot rubber was almost steady on Monday.
The market lost its direction amidst extremely low volumes but RSS 4 made marginal gains on comparatively better demand.
According to sources, there was no visible buying pressure from any major consuming industries on the grade but the absence of genuine sellers kept it slightly firm during the late trading hours.
Sheet rubber improved to Rs 167 (Rs 166) a kg, according to traders.
The grade inched up to Rs 166.50 (Rs 166) at Kottayam and Kochi, as reported by the Rubber Board.
In futures, the October contracts slipped to Rs 169 (Rs 169.37) while November contracts firmed up to Rs 169.35 (Rs 168.97), December to Rs 171.25 (Rs 170.75), January to Rs 173.52 (Rs 172.54) and February to Rs 176 (Rs 175.49) on the National Multi Commodity Exchange .
RSS 3 (spot) declined to Rs 153.47 (Rs 155.35) at Bangkok.
The October futures closed at ¥245.7 (Rs 156.77) on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange .
