Tur buying is likely to be seen soon again.Six direct vessels (2 break bulks & 4 container vessels) for India carrying Tur are likely to set sail on 30th October to 7th November. Meanwhile, Tur prices remained flat as Indian buyers were side-lined at higher rates due to hike in container freight. Earlier single container freight was around $380-$400 which was steeply hiked to $1100, as deadline of container to load till 9th November is fast approaching. So, cargo can reach India till 15th November. Overall tur prices are likely to get support at lower rates, as arrival of new domestic crop are still two months away. Reports of crop damage and delay in arrivals in Karnataka and Maharashtra, amid rains, underpin the pulses.

Burma Urad: Price of Burma Urad FAQ new variety traded unchanged at Rs 7,800/100Kg, in Mumbai, due to limited millers' trade and ongoing domestic arrivals. On other hand in Chennai, Burma Urad SQ variety fell Rs 100 at Rs 8,900/100Kgdue to slack trade at higher ratesand dull offtake in processed Urad. However, FAQ variety moved Rs 50 higher to Rs 7,900/100Kg on selective mill buying on immediate requirement for crushing. Sentiments are still under pressure as Government has taken several steps in cooling off rising prices by giving import quota, liquidating old procured stock and releasing buffer stock at subsidized rate to the states for retail sale. As per the notification, each eligible and verified importer shall be allowed to import 97 MTs approximately. However, arrivals of superior quality Urad are less as compared to average/damaged quality. As per Burma based local trader, Urad FAQ/SQ varieties remained weak as sellers were active. Meanwhile, no buyers from India were active in Urad. As per market view, prices are likely to get support due to no overseas supply pressure, damage to yield and quality of domestic Urad along with limited carry over stock with government/private traders.

In Mumbai, Tanzania-origin Chana ruled weak by Rs 50 at Rs 5,200/100Kg, due to supplies from its origin.

Imported Masoor (Mumbai): Canada crimson variety and Australia-origin Masoor in Mumbai extended fall by Rs 25-50 at Rs 5,200-5,275/100Kg and Rs 5,350-5,375, respectively in Mumbai, amid dull mill buying. Availability of imported raw and processed Masoor stocks at cheaper rates, slower offtake in processed Masoor and reduced import duty has dampened the sentiments. Similarly, Canada crimson variety Masoor at Hazira and Mundra port fell Rs 30-50 each, at Rs 5,200/100Kg and Rs 5,161, respectively. As per market talk, Masoor prices are likely to get some support due to cheaper rates compared to other pulses and also hike in MSP to Rs 5,100/100Kg. Government policy on import duty after 30th October may give direction to Masoor prices. Demand of seeds is also expected, as rabi sowing will begin soon. As per market sources, Vessel M. V. Nord Bering carrying Masoor from Canada had sailed on 23rd September and is likely to reach Singapore on 21st October. Although it is unlikely to reach Mundra port by 31st October. Vessel M.V. Equinox Agnandoussa carrying Masoor from Canada set sail on 28th September and likely to reach Singapore on 22nd October.
