15 Oct 2013
October 15: International coal prices moved in a restricted manner in absence of major enquiries, industry sources said.
The restricted price movement trend is likely to continue with China still maintaining a low profile while Indian buyers are going slow on their procurement plants in anticipation of pickup in demand for end products like steel and cement, they added.
Following are the indicative prices of coal in various markets and indicative freight rates on October 14:
