HDPE prices extend gains and hold firm into March
HDPE posted another higher close this week, keeping the domestic market firmly bid on a near-term view. The latest assessment shows the polymer holding at the top of the recent band, after a stronger fortnight move that has re-shaped short-term benchmarks for procurement checks.
This week, HDPE was assessed at Rs 104/kg, up Rs 3/kg from T–7. The fortnight comparison is stronger, with the grade Rs 7/kg above the level seen two weeks earlier, signalling a sustained lift rather than a flat-to-up pattern. Indian HDPE prices are now at the recent high around Rs 104/kg in the current 90-day window, while the recent low in that period sits near Rs 93.5/kg, underlining the wider distance between recent reference points.
On a month view, the market is Rs 7.5/kg higher than early February, and the three-month comparison shows a Rs 8.5/kg gain versus early December. The year-on-year marker remains positive, with the latest level Rs 7/kg above the same date last year. These anchors keep the current position easy to map for internal benchmarks and contract discussions. Indian HDPE prices remain a key reference point for weekly budgeting, and HDPE prices in India are currently sitting at the upper edge of the recent range, HDPE, HDPE Prices, Extend Gains, March Trend, Polymer Market, Petrochemicals, Price Trend.
