Indian Pendimethalin prices

Pendimethalin stayed unchanged this week at Rs 280/kg, keeping the same level as the previous week and only slightly above the Rs 275/kg point seen a fortnight earlier. The near-term market remains stable, with no major weekly shift in direction. Indian Pendimethalin prices are therefore moving through the current reporting window in a compressed band rather than in an expanding trend.

Looking further out, the month comparison places the current market above Rs 258/kg, while the three-month and six-month references stand at Rs 255/kg and Rs 252/kg. The year-on-year marker is Rs 274/kg. Recent domestic trade has stayed between about Rs 262/kg at the lower side and Rs 280/kg at the upper side, which shows how narrow the active spread has become. That range is much tighter than the broader historical movement, even though the all-period data set includes lower and higher points outside the recent window.

Indian Pendimethalin prices remain near the upper edge of the recent band, and Pendimethalin prices in India continue to show a domestic market that is stable on the week while still firmer than the month and quarter comparisons.

ABS trades flat on the weekly marker

ABS ended the latest assessment week at Rs 152/kg on 02 Mar 2026, matching last week and extending a pause after earlier shifts. The fortnight comparison still shows a Rs 3/kg drop from mid-February, but the immediate tone has stabilised, giving buyers a cleaner reference for near-term decisions.

The month view remains firmer, with ABS Rs 4/kg higher than the early-February point. Over three months, prices are up Rs 14/kg from Rs 138/kg, while the six-month comparison is Rs 3/kg lower than Rs 155/kg. Recent markers place the market near the recent high around Rs 155/kg and close to the lower end of recent trading near Rs 138/kg, with the latest assessment positioned between those reference points and showing limited week-to-week volatility.

For teams that track Indian ABS prices as part of contract resets and spot negotiations, the flat weekly move matters as much as the earlier fortnight slip. ABS prices in India are also notably above the three-month baseline, even as they remain short of the six-month reference, ABS, ABS Trades, Flat Trend, Weekly Marker, Polymer Market, Petrochemicals, Price Update.

Dichloroethane continues flat trend in Mumbai

Dichloroethane ended the week unchanged at Rs 40/kg in Mumbai, extending a run of steady readings that has offered little week-to-week variation. Indian Dichloroethane prices were flat against last week and also unchanged on a fortnight comparison, keeping the near-term market picture stable for procurement and contract review.

The month view reinforces the same pattern: Rs 40/kg today versus Rs 40/kg a month earlier. Over the last 30 days, the series has held between Rs 40/kg (recent low) and Rs 40/kg (recent high), indicating that moves were effectively absent. On a three-month anchor, the marker is slightly lower than Rs 41/kg, while the six-month reference shows a much softer position versus Rs 54/kg. Year-on-year, the market is also down versus Rs 44/kg, which frames the current stability as a lower-level hold rather than an elevated plateau.

For buyers, this kind of consistency can simplify budgeting, but it also means small deviations—if they appear—become easier to detect quickly. Indian Dichloroethane prices should therefore be monitored on the weekly close even when the month view is unchanged, to confirm that the stable baseline remains intact. Dichloroethane prices in India are currently concentrated at a single level across the recent window, supporting straightforward replacement planning, Dichloroethane prices, Dichloroethane market, flat trend, Mumbai market, chemical trends.
