As spinners made some fresh deals on lower prices, trading activity on the cotton market on Tuesday saw some improvement, dealers said. In the ready business, as a result of slight improvement in the daily intake, over 3000 bales of cotton changed hands between Rs 4700 and Rs 5400.
The official spot rate remained unchanged at Rs 5,200. While, in Sindh, seed cotton prices were at Rs 2000-2200, and in Punjab prices at Rs 2500 and Rs 2900.
Needy spinners came back to finalize deals due to lower rates. Rise in the cotton futures could be another factor behind the increase in fresh buying by mills and spinners, according to the market sources.
