NEW DELHI, Sept 9: Taking positive cues from the global market and rising demand in the domestic spot market, lead futures prices today rose 0.75 per cent to Rs 114.40 per kg as speculators built up positions.
Lead for delivery in October contracts edged higher by 85 paise, or 0.75 per cent, to Rs 114.40 per kg, with a turnover of six lots while delivery in current month contracts was up 80 paise, or 0.71 per cent, to Rs 113.35 per kg in a turnover of 493 lots.
Marketmen said the rise was mostly supported by rising demand from battery-makers in the domestic spot market and firming trend in industrial metals at the London Metal Exchange. (PTI)
