Zinc Futures Decline on Weak Demand - PTI

New Delhi, Feb 19 (PTI) Zinc prices on Wednesday fell 0.35 per cent to Rs 271.60 per kilogram in futures trade as speculators reduced their exposure, tracking negative cues from the spot market.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange, zinc contracts for March delivery traded 95 paise or 0.35 per cent lower at Rs 271.60 per kg in 924 lots.

Analysts said the trimming of positions by participants owing to slackened demand from consuming industries in the physical market mainly weighed on zinc prices.
