Tea Export enquiries for orthodox tea at Kochi sales Major blenders operated on good liquoring CTCs while inter-state buyers remained selective. Our Bureau Kochi, Nov. 21 Despite the surge in arrivals of both leaf and dust tea at the Kochi Tea Auction, prices continued to remain steady to lower. There was better demand from the loose tea trade sector, while exporters remained less active at the dust auction.

Orthodox dust grades also quoted lower. Best CTC grades quoted Rs 85-110, medium CTC was at Rs 75-85 and below medium fetched Rs 62-68. High grown orthodox fetched Rs 105 and medium BOPD was at Rs 56-59. Nearly 4,33,000 kg of leaf tea were on offer where prices of high grown and orthodox medium grades eased.
