How to read this

Manganese ore is sold in grades, and the manganese content is what separates one grade from another. That is why the circular splits the increase at the Mn-44% level: ore with manganese content of Mn-44% and above is treated as one set of Ferro grades, and everything below that, along with Chemical grades, SMGR grades and Fines, forms the other set. Both sets have been increased by the same 5%.

EMD and EMD flakes are among the other products the company prices. For these two, the basic prices have been continued at the earlier levels rather than revised.

For a mining company, the price at which grades are sold is one of the inputs that go into revenue, along with the quantity sold in the period. This announcement carries the price direction and the size of the change for the named grades.

To sum up

• 5% increase for Ferro grades with Mn-44% and above.
• 5% increase for other Ferro grades below Mn-44%, Chemical grades, SMGR grades and Fines.
• EMD basic price continued at Rs.1,80,000/- PMT; EMD flakes basic price continued at Rs.1,71,000/-.
