SAN steadies after recent recovery
SAN ended at Rs 150/kg on March 3, unchanged from February 24, as the weekly print stayed stable. Indian SAN prices have held steady on the headline weekly comparison even after stronger gains built up earlier in the month.
The fortnight view shows the market higher by Rs 8/kg from February 17, and the month view is up Rs 14/kg versus January 31. Over the past month, the recent high has been around Rs 153/kg, while the month’s low was near Rs 138/kg, signalling that swings were wider than the latest week alone suggests. Compared with December 3, the three-month anchor is Rs 153/kg, putting the latest level Rs -3/kg higher, while the six-month reference on September 4 at Rs 150/kg leaves the market Rs 0/kg lower. Year on year, March 3, 2025 was Rs 137/kg, keeping the broader comparison softer by Rs 13/kg. SAN prices in India therefore present a mixed timeline: firmer in the month, softer in longer comparisons.
For procurement planning, the stable weekly close can be useful for contract index checks, while the month’s high-low spread supports internal trigger setting for staggered buys across multiple delivery windows.
