CHATTOGRAM, March 3, 2025 (BSS) - The bulk of the offerings constituted of plain end of season types 
which met with a restricted demand and witnessed heavy withdrawals in the 43rd sale of the year held 
in the port city on Monday. 

However, a few clean teas continued to meet with a fairly good demand and sold in line with quality. 
Blenders continued to lend good support with interest from the loose tea buyers. Dusts were an 
easier market.

The details of the sale excerpts as below: 

CTC LEAF: 53,021 packages of tea on offer met with less demand.

BROKENS: A few clean Brokens on offer met with a good demand at around last levels. All other 
varieties met with a fair demand and where sold eased in line with quality particularly the plainer 
varieties. BLF teas continued to meet with a restricted demand with very heavy withdrawals.

FANNINGS: A few clean Fannings met with a fairly good demand and were about steady. The 
remainder met with a fair demand but eased in line with quality particularly the plainer types. BLF teas 
continued to meet with a restricted demand with very heavy withdrawals.

DUST: 7,604 packages of tea on offer met with a good demand. Good liquoring Dusts were in good 
demand at slightly easier rates. Mediums also witnessed a decline in price but sold well closely 
following quality. Plain/BLF Dusts were difficult of sale with heavy withdrawals. Blenders lent strong 
support with fair interest from the Loose tea buyers.
