Fairly small trade activity was witnessed at Pakistan cotton market on Monday as some leading buyers kept on the sidelines due to little interest in fresh buying, according to dealers.

At Karachi cotton exchange, the official spot rate remained static at Rs 5450.

According to Cotton analyst, Naseem Usman, mills are still under pressure over the issue of GIDC and on the other hand the ginners were selling their stuff before arrivals of new crop.

The market sources said that unenthusiastic attitude was seen among ginners, who half heartedly willing to sell their unsold at below their psychological levels.
