DUST: 9,462 packages of  tea on offer met with quite a strong demand. Good liquoring Dusts were fully firm to slightly dearer market. Their Mediums sold well at around last levels closely following quality. Plain/BLF Dusts met with better demand and saw only a few withdrawals. Blenders lent strong support with fair interest from the Loose tea buyers.

COMMENTS: Blenders were again the mainstay of the market lending useful support for all varieties. However, Loose tea buyers were less active this week resulting in less competition. Demand for the reprinted section of the market was again very restricted and withdrawals were heavier.

Dusts sold well.
