BROKENS: Well made good liquoring Brokens were a strong market and realised prices around last levels. Their smaller varieties once again attracted good competition and were mostly firm.

DUST: 10,244 packages of tea on offer met with strong demand. Good liquoring Dusts were a dearer market and advanced by Tk.3/- to Tk.5/- closely following quality. Their Mediums were firm on last. Likewise, plain/BLF Dusts met with a good market and saw only a few withdrawals. Blenders lent strong support with fair interest from the Loose tea buyers.

COMMENTS:  The best varieties on offer continued to meet with a good competition particularly from the Blenders who were the mainstay of the market. Loose tea buyers were selective.

Dusts were a dearer market. .
