The volumes were moderate.

The September futures for RSS 3 improved to 139.1 yen against 138.6 yen a kg at TOCOM. At Bangkok, RSS 3 closed at Rs 57.85 against Rs 57.68 a kg on Friday.

Spot market rates were (all per kg): RSS 4 - 54 (54), RSS 5 - 51.50 (51.50), ungraded - 49 (50), ISNR 20 - 49.50 (50.25) and latex 60 per cent - 37.50 (37.50).
