Fastmarkets believes that changing the thickness to 10-40mm will better reflect the base import price in the current market.
Following the amendment, the name of the price will be “Steel heavy plate 10-40mm import, cfr main port India, $/tonne” and the specifications are as follows:
MB-STE-0446 Steel heavy plate 10-40mm import, cfr main port India, $/tonne Quality: A36B, SS400, ASTM, JIS Width:1,500-3,500mm Thickness: 10-40mm Quantity: Min lot size of 1,000 tonnes Location: cfr India Timing: 4-12 weeks Unit: $/tonne Payment terms: Letter of credit on sight Publication: Every Friday, 2-3pm London time
The change will apply from Friday October 2, after a consultation for the proposed change was held from August 26 to September 25.
