AUCTION TIMING

CTC LEAF: 55,035 packages of tea on offer met with a
fairly strong demand.
BROKENS: Well made good liquoring small Brokens met
with quite a strong demand and sold well in line with
quality but prices were slightly easier than last. Likewise,
other varieties met with a good demand but were easier by
Tk.5/- and more. BLF teas met with quite a good demand
but eased in price.
FANNINGS: Well made, good liquoring Fannings were in
strong demand and sold well at slightly easier rates. All
others were a good market but were also easier. BLF teas
met with quite a good demand but were easier.
DUST: 10,339 packages of tea on offer met with a good
demand at easier rates . Good liquoring Dusts sold barely
steady following competition. Mediums were easier by
Tk.3/- to Tk.5/- closely following quality. Plain/BLF Dust
met with less demand and saw few withdrawals. Blenders lent
strong support with fair interest from the Loose tea buyers.
COMMENTS: Offerings showed a fair increase over last but
these were well absorbed by buyers. Blenders were the
mainstay of the market and lent useful support but Loose tea
buyers were a little less active.
It was evident throughout the sale that competition seen in the
previous weeks was rather lacking this week resulting in
slightly lower price levels.
Dusts were an easier market.
