Rs.2620.7 losing Rs.22.3 over Rs.2643 the previous week
Market Buzz:
NMCE Raw Jute futures moved southwards this week
Near series moved below Rs.2,650 per qntl this week
The ban on imports of jute products from Bangladesh and Nepal into the country, as demanded
by the Indian Jute Mills Association might encourage more use of alternative packaging materials
thereby causing loss to the jute industry
The annual prolonged and indefinite strikes by jute mill workers have caused irreparable damage
to the consumers and users of jute cloth and bags for their packaging requirements
Many large industries have already switched over from jute bags to woven poly sacks and it is
very regrettable that neither the mill owners nor the trade unions are concerned over the loss of
these markets for jute products

The annual prolonged and indefinite strikes by jute mill workers have caused irreparable damage
to the consumers and users of jute cloth and bags for their packaging requirements
Many large industries have already switched over from jute bags to woven poly sacks and it is
very regrettable that neither the mill owners nor the trade unions are concerned over the loss of
these markets for jute products
The government and the sugar industry are the key buyers of jute products in the country and
the prolonged strike has affected the supply of jute bags
