Announcements Reliance hikes polyester prices Our Bureau
Mumbai , March 1 RELIANCE Industries Ltd has raised prices of fibre intermediate and polyester products for March 2004.

Among polymers, polyvinyl chloride prices are 4.4 per cent higher at Rs 47.50 per kg (Rs 45.50). The company has cut prices of polypropylene by 3.1 per cent to Rs 49.25 per kg (Rs 50.85). Polyethylene prices remain unchanged at Rs 50.20 per kg.
