While prices in Raipur remained stable w-o-w, those in Mandi Gobindgarh moved higher.<\/p>\n<p>A similar trend was observed on a d-o-d basis. In Raipur, prices remained stable d-o-d at INR 44,400\/t Ex-works (Exw) on 17 July. In contrast, prices in Mandi Gobindgarh increased by INR 700\/t d-o-d to INR 47,400\/t Exw on 17 July from INR 46,700\/t Exw a day earlier.

Weak demand continued to constrain market activity, with buyers limiting purchases to immediate requirements. However, relatively firmer raw material prices, particularly billet, provided some cost support, limiting the scope for any price correction despite subdued demand conditions.<\/p>\n<p>A Raipur-based manufacturer indicated, &#8220;The onset of the rainy season has kept market sentiment subdued, with fresh enquiries and order inflows remaining limited. Buyers continue to adopt a wait-and-watch approach in anticipation of lower prices as the seasonal slowdown continues to weigh on demand. With booking activity expected to remain muted, prices are likely to stay under pressure in the coming days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mandi Gobindgarh:\u00a0ERW patra pipe prices in Mandi Gobindgarh rose by INR 900\/t w-o-w to INR 47,400\/t exw on 17 July from INR 46,500\/t a week earlier. Trading activity remained largely need-based for most of the week. However, manufacturers raised offers towards the weekend as scheduled power cuts from 18 July, with electricity supply being prioritised for agricultural use, are likely to disrupt production and further tighten supply in an already constrained market. Expectations of lower output supported the w-o-w price increase despite the absence of any meaningful improvement in demand.<\/p>\n<p>A Mandi Gobindgarh-based manufacturer said, &#8220;Supply availability was already tight across certain sizes, and the scheduled power cuts from 9:00 pm to 7:00 am are expected to further constrain production in the coming days. While the resulting supply-side pressure is likely to keep prices supported and limit any sharp downside, the scope for any significant increase also remains limited as the seasonal slowdown continues to weigh on market activity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Raw material prices:<\/p>\n<p>HR strip (patra):\u00a0HR strip (patra) prices in Raipur remained stable w-o-w at around INR 43,600\/t exw on 17 July. In contrast, patra prices in Mandi Gobindgarh increased by INR 700\/t w-o-w to INR 46,400\/t exw on 17 July from INR 45,500\/t a week earlier.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-72569\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biztrend24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Untitled-design-2026-07-19T160403.623.jpg?resize=640%2C360&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biztrend24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Untitled-design-2026-07-19T160403.623.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biztrend24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Untitled-design-2026-07-19T160403.623.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biztrend24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Untitled-design-2026-07-19T160403.623.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biztrend24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Untitled-design-2026-07-19T160403.623.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Billet:\u00a0Billet prices in Raipur inched up by INR 200\/t w-o-w to INR 37,800\/t exw on 17 July from INR 37,600\/t a week earlier.
