Carbon Black rebounds from the week’s low
Carbon Black has recovered Rs 8/kg this week after briefly touching lower levels during a sharp mid-week adjustment. The latest increase has lifted the market away from the week's low, although prices remain below the recent peak seen in late June.
Indian Carbon Black prices in the Delhi domestic market closed at Rs 168/kg on 3 July, up from Rs 160/kg a week earlier. The move represents a partial recovery of recent losses rather than the start of a fresh upward trend. Over the past fortnight, the product has eased from levels around Rs 174/kg, while trading has largely remained within a well-defined range. Apart from one notable adjustment, day-to-day movements were relatively contained.
The broader market continues to show moderate stability. The latest assessment sits near the middle of the recent trading zone, with support around Rs 160/kg and resistance near Rs 174/kg. Available monthly data indicate a period marked by brief corrections followed by stabilisation, allowing buyers and sellers to monitor prices without significant daily volatility. For procurement tracking, Carbon Black prices in India remain bounded by recent highs and lows rather than extending into new territory.
Indian Carbon Black prices continue to provide a useful benchmark for replacement cost evaluation and short-term inventory planning as the domestic market trades within an established recent range.
