Orth. Leaf:

Market:

Strong and widespread demand.  Nilgiri whole leaf irregular and select best sold at higher prices.  Brokens dearer by Rs.5/- to Rs.10/- and sometimes more.  Nilgiri fannings barely steady to tending easier.  Teas from other origins were a strong feature and moved up by Rs.8/- to Rs.10/- and sometimes more.  Medium fannings were higher.

Buying  Pattern

Better export enquiry was forthcoming from CIS, Iraq and Tunisia buyers.  Fannings were absorbed by Tea Bag shippers along with upcountry buyers.

Market:

Fair demand. Opened at last levels but as the sale progressed prices declined by Rs.3/- to Rs.5/- and sometimes more, especially high priced teas.

Buying  Pattern: 

M/s. AVT, Tata Tea and K.S.C.S.C. were fairly active along with internal buyers of Kerala.  M/s. Hindustan Unilever Limited were selective.  Better export and upcountry demand was in evidence.
