HZL Lead Ingot Price in Bhiwandi

Zinc prices showed mixed movement across global exchanges. LME zinc edged higher on rising geopolitical risks and weak US job data, while SHFE zinc declined due to softening domestic demand and higher inventories. With China’s PMI weakening and global trade tensions escalating, demand remains under pressure. However, tightening global supply and low LME inventory levels are helping to cap further downside.

Zinc prices have been experiencing fluctuations across multiple markets. The LME zinc price dropped by 4.65% with SHFE prices falling by 0.62%. On the MCX, zinc closed at a decrease of 3.23%. Inventory levels have increased, particularly with a rise in LME stocks, easing some short-term supply concerns.

Zinc markets remain supported by tight global inventories despite mixed price movement across LME, MCX, and SHFE. China’s record output and profitable arbitrage have opened a strong export window, expected to reach 50,000 tons by year-end. Spot premiums, firm Indian prices, and cautious buying shape near-term sentiment.

Zinc prices remained firm across major exchanges as low inventories and steady downstream demand supported the market. Seasonal restocking in China and persistent warehouse withdrawals at the LME reinforced bullish sentiment. While supply remains tight, analysts expect short-term consolidation with a slight upward bias if disruptions persist.

Zinc prices held firm across major exchanges on October 29, 2025, supported by tight LME inventories (~37 kt) and steady downstream demand in China.

Aluminium prices gained slightly on the LME and in India as Hindalco and Balco raised ingot rates by ₹3,500/MT. Domestic premiums remained firm due to healthy local demand, while the LME Asian Reference price declined 1.8%, reflecting regional weakness. BALCO’s new 525 kA smelter signals future capacity expansion.

Zinc prices held steady across global exchanges as tightening inventories and improved domestic demand supported sentiment. LME futures hovered above $3,000/MT, while HZL and Vedanta reported record production for H1 FY26. Despite firm fundamentals, upside potential appears limited unless fresh supply disruptions emerge in key producing regions.

ADC12 aluminum alloy prices held steady near RMB 20,800–21,000/t as pre-holiday buying faded and inventories rose sharply. Scrap supply remains tight, supporting costs, while extended downstream holidays and weak die-casting demand limit consumption.
